Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 bagels, sliced in half
  • 1/4 cup pizza sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 20 slices pepperoni

Instructions

  1. Prepare the bagels: Slice the bagels in half horizontally to create two pieces each. Lay them flat to prepare for topping.
  2. Spread the sauce: Evenly distribute about 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce over each bagel half, covering the surface but leaving a small border around the edges.
  3. Add cheese and toppings: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the sauce, then layer pepperoni slices on top of the cheese to your liking.
  4. Air fry the bagels: Preheat the air fryer to 370°F (188°C). Place the prepared bagels in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and starts to bubble, and the edges of the bagels are crisp.
  5. Serve: Carefully remove the pizza bagels using tongs or a spatula, let cool slightly, then enjoy warm.

Notes

  • You can customize your pizza bagels with additional toppings such as mushrooms, bell peppers, or olives.
  • For a crispier crust, toast the bagels briefly before adding toppings.
  • Cooking times may vary depending on the air fryer model; monitor closely to prevent burning.
  • Leftover pizza bagels can be refrigerated and reheated in the air fryer for best results.
