Air fryer pizza quesadillas are easy no-flip quesadillas that are ready in less than 10 minutes. The quesadillas are delicious and easy to customize!
Pizza is a favorite in our house. So are quesadillas. So whenever we have tortillas, I love making pizza quesadillas.
Sometimes I will cook the pizza quesadillas on the stove, but lately I've been making them in the air fryer. It's quick, easy, and they cook in less than 5 minutes! And even better? No flipping needed.
Ingredients
- Flour tortillas
- Tomato sauce
- Shredded mozzarella cheese
- Olive oil
- Dried oregano (optional)
How to make an air fryer pizza quesadilla
Take two tortillas. Lightly spray or brush them with oil.
Place one on a plate and top with tomato sauce.
Sprinkle dried oregano over the top (or other seasonings if using).
Top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Place the pizza quesadilla in the air fryer.
Top with the other tortilla. If needed, place something on top to weigh down the tortilla if you're worried about it flying off while cooking.
Air fry at 400 degrees F for 4-5 minutes.
Remove and slice the quesadilla.
Serve as desired! I always love topping my pizza quesadilla with fresh basil if I have some in my house.
Customization ideas
This recipe is easy to customize! You can add different toppings just like you would a regular pizza. However, because the cook time of the quesadilla is so short, most toppings should be pre-cooked before adding to the quesadilla.
You can add pepperoni, sautéed onions, cooked bell pepper, black olives, cooked sausage or any of your favorite pizza toppings.
Recipe tips
- The recipe written as is makes one quesadilla, but you can make as many as you like.
- If you have a smaller air fryer, you may need to make sure you are using small flour tortillas or fold them in half to fit.
- All air fryers cook differently. Adjust cooking times if needed.
