How long to Air Fry Frozen Pizza and at what temperature?
The answer depends on the size of the frozen pizza. There are several different brands and styles in the freezer aisle from mini pizzas, thin crust pizza, deep dish pizza, to French bread pizza. This will effect the cooking time.
In general, it will take anywhere from 6-15 minutes. I recommend checking on the pizza at 6 minutes, especially then crust. Add additional cook time as needed.
I made a DiGiorno four cheese original crust pizza in my Cosori 5.8 quart air fryer. It took 8 minutes to cook.
How to cook French bread Frozen Pizza in Air Fryer
Each machine cooks a little different but air fryer frozen French bread pizza takes anywhere from 12-17 minutes at 380 degrees F. I recommend checking at 10 minutes and add extra time if needed.
Recipe Tips
- If you find that your pizza is cooking too fast on the top, lower the temperature to 360 degrees F.
- For a crunchier crust, spray lightly with olive oil. This is optional.
- Fee free to add additional toppings to your frozen pizza. Be sure to cut them small and thin and then add to the top of the pizza before cooking.
