You can have these wonderful Air Fryer Pizza Bagels ready in just 8 minutes. The bagels get wonderfully crispy. Super easy to whip up for a lunch or snack and easily customizable.

Ingredients Needed For Air Fryer Pizza Bagels
These Bagel Pizzas are so easy to customize. I’ve kept them simple with just cheese and mini pepperonis plus a few seasonings.
- 2 Plain Bagels– I use regular size but you could make mini pizzas with mini bagels. You could even use flavored bagels like onion, poppy seed or everything bagels.
- Olive Oil– gets the bagels wonderfully crispy.
- Garlic Powder– sprinkled on the bagels for a little extra flavor.
- Pizza Sauce– I use Trader Joe’s Pizza Sauce, but any pizza sauce will do.
- Provolone Cheese– I like to use both provolone cheese and mozzarella cheese.
- Mozzarella cheese
- Mini Pepperoni
- Dried Italian Seasoning

How To Make
- Prepare Bagels. Cut bagels in half. Brush the cut sides with olive oil and sprinkle with a little garlic powder.
- Air Fry Bagels. Air fry the bagels for 4 minutes to get them crispy before you add the sauce and toppings.
- Assemble. Spread pizza sauce on the bagels and top with provolone cheese, mozzarella cheese and pepperoni. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
- Air Fry. Air Fry for 3 minutes or until the cheese is melted.



Recipe Tips
- A few of the toppings may fly around a little. Check after a few minutes and place any toppings that have flown off back on the bagels.
- Don’t use too much sauce or the bagels will get soggy. You can always dip the bagels in more sauce.
Variations
- You can use all mozzarella cheese if you prefer.
- Any toppings can be used. Try mushrooms, thinly sliced onion, bell pepper, olives, or cooked and crumbled sausage.
- For a little spice, sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes.
- Some grated Parmesan cheese is also delicious.
