Quick snacks or even lunches in the epic coronavirus lockdown that will go down in history for us are really trying if you want more than a lunch meat sandwich. My daughter actually got creative with her mini naan bread and created herself pepperoni pizza bites. She loved her air fryer pizza bites. She loved them even more because they were ready in under 10 minutes.
Air fryer pizza bites on naan bread are a simple snack or lunch made with naan bites, pizza sauce, pepperoni, and cheese and cook quickly in the air fryer or Ninja Foodi. These were easy for her to make on her own and will become a staple after school snack and even quick lunch.
Pizza Bite Ingredients
The simplicity of these pizza bites is what I love most about this recipe. Crust, sauce, meat, and cheese are the core of a good pizza at our house. These pepperoni pizza bites have just that.
- Naan bites. But mini bagels, mini tortilla shells, and even English muffins could work.
- Pizza sauce. Spaghetti sauce or even just tomato sauce could work too.
- Pepperoni. Don't like pepperoni? Just leave them off. or substituteOlives, mushrooms, and even bacon would also be good on these pizza bites.
- Shredded mozzarella.
Grab these ingredients and start assembling.
How to Make Air Fryer Pepperoni Pizza Bites
Before you start making your pizza bites, warm up your air fryer while you assemble. I used my Cosori air fryer
to make these. Preheat on 350 degrees.
To make these simple pizza snacks, start by laying out your naan bites or minis. Then spread the pizza sauce over the top of the naan. Then layer the pepperoni on the meat. My daughter would lay a few pieces of pepperoni and then cheese and then more pepperoni. You can just do one layer of each.
When you have the bites assembled, lay them in your air fryer basket. We could easily get four or five in our air fryer. Then air fry them for 3 to five minutes at 350°.
The results are crispy pepperoni with lots of melty cheese. And they cooked in less than 5 minutes!! My kid did another batch she loved them so much.
