Air fryer pizza bagels

Ingredients:

• 4 bagels (sliced in half)
• 1 cup pizza sauce
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• Pepperoni slices (or your favorite pizza toppings)
• Olive oil (optional, for brushing)
• Dried oregano (optional, for seasoning)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Air Fryer:
   • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
2. Prepare the Bagels:
   • Slice the bagels in half if they are not already pre-sliced.
   • If desired, lightly brush the bagel halves with olive oil for extra crispiness.
3. Add the Sauce and Cheese:
   • Spread a generous amount of pizza sauce on each bagel half.
   • Sprinkle a good amount of shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce.
4. Add Toppings:
   • Place pepperoni slices or any other preferred toppings on top of the cheese.
5. Cook in the Air Fryer:
   • Arrange the bagel halves in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook them in batches.
   • Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 5-7 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the bagels are crispy.
6. Season and Serve:
   • If desired, sprinkle dried oregano on top of the cooked pizza bagels.
   • Let them cool slightly before serving.

Tips:

• Customize your pizza bagels with different toppings like mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, sausage, or any other favorites.
• Be mindful of the air fryer capacity. Overcrowding can result in uneven cooking.
• Keep an eye on the bagels while they cook to prevent over-browning.
