Ingredients

• 1 Udi’s Gluten Free Pepperoni Pizza (frozen; do not thaw)

• Optional: olive oil spray for extra crust crispiness

• Optional toppings: crushed red pepper flakes, fresh basil, extra shredded cheese

• Optional sides: simple side salad, gluten-free garlic knots, roasted veggies

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat the Air Fryer

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F for 3–5 minutes to ensure an even cook.

Prepare the Pizza

• Remove pizza from all packaging, including any plastic wrap or cardboard.

• Place the frozen pizza directly into the air fryer basket or tray.

• Optionally, spray the crust edges lightly with olive oil for extra crunch.

Air Fry

• Air fry at 375°F for 8–10 minutes, depending on your air fryer model and pizza thickness.

• Check at the 8-minute mark: the crust should be golden and firm, and cheese should be bubbling.

• For extra browning, add 1–2 minutes.

Check for Doneness

• Ensure internal temperature reaches at least 165°F.

• Cheese should be fully melted and slightly golden.

• Crust should be crisp but not burnt.

Pro Tips

• Do not thaw before air frying—pizza cooks best from frozen for optimal texture.

• For a crispier crust, use a perforated tray or place pizza on parchment with holes poked underneath.

• Add extra pepperoni or shredded mozzarella halfway through for a loaded version.
