Ingredients

• 1 Frozen Bellatoria Pizza (Ultra Thin, Garlic Crust, Sunday Brunch, French Bread, Rising Crust, etc.)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer

Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and preheat for 3 minutes for even crisping.

Step 2: Remove Packaging

Unwrap the pizza fully and discard plastic and cardboard. If too large, cut into halves or quarters to fit your air fryer basket or tray.

Step 3: Air Fry to Perfection

Place pizza in a single layer in the basket or tray. Use these cooking times by variety:

• Ultra Thin Crust: 375°F for 7–9 minutes

• Garlic or Classic Crust: 375°F for 9–11 minutes

• Rising Crust: 360°F for 12–15 minutes, tent with foil for the first half to prevent cheese over-browning

• French Bread Pizzas: 375°F for 10–12 minutes

Step 4: Check for Doneness

Pizza is ready when crust is golden and crisp, cheese is melted and bubbly, and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 5: Let Cool & Serve

Cool for 2–3 minutes, then slice and enjoy with your favorite sauces or toppings.

Pro Tips for the Best Results

Cut to Fit the Basket

For larger Bellatoria pizzas, cut before cooking to ensure even airflow.

Use Foil for Rising Crust

Cover lightly with foil during the first half of cooking to prevent over-browning.

Add Toppings Before Cooking

Layer on olives, extra cheese, jalapeños, or pepperoni before air frying for a custom slice.

Don’t Skip the Rest Time

Letting the pizza rest briefly improves the texture and makes slicing easier.
