Directions

For 1-2 slices of leftover pizza:

1. Turn the air fryer on.
2. Set to 350 degrees F and preheat (optional) for about five minutes.
3. Place pizza slices onto aluminum foil or parchment paper inside of the air fryer basket, making sure to place them in a single layer and not to overlap them.
4. If you want your crust crispy, leave as-is; otherwise, place another layer of aluminum foil or parchment paper over top.
5. Close door or cover with lid.
6. Set timer for 3-5 minutes depending on pizza thickness (3 minutes for thinner, 5 minutes for thicker crust). If unsure, start with 3 minutes and then add 1-2 minutes based on result.
7. Let pizza cool a 1-2 minutes at room temperature before eating.
8. Enjoy!

Top Tips to reheat pizza in air fryer

• If you need to reheat more than one pizza, it is best to only do this in batches of two or three at a time unless you have a larger, toaster oven style air fryer. Otherwise the air fryer may overheat and shut off before all pizzas are finished cooking.
• Use as low a temperature setting as possible - about 350 degrees Fahrenheit (177 degrees Celsius)--to prevent burning the crust or the cheese.
• One of the best things about reheating pizza in an air fryer is that it heats up to a piping hot temperature without drying out. You don't need butter or oil, which would be used for oven baking, but you may add them if you like.
• For thick crust pizza or deep dish pizza, cooking time may be longer. For thin crust pizza, cooking time may be less.
• If you have cold pizza, may need to heat longer. Fresh pizza and room temperature will cook more quickly.
• Use an air fryer for best results as using a microwave oven may result in soggy pizza and soggy pizza crust.
• Allow reheated pizza to cool before eating to avoid being burned by the melted cheese.
• Reheating a leftover slice of pizza in an air fryer oven the next day is much more energy efficient than reheating in a conventional oven or a convection oven.
• Wrap leftover pizza in plastic wrap or place in an airtight container before storing in the refrigerator.
• Air fryers can also be used to cook french fries, pizza dough, frozen pizza, and even homemade pizza!
