Ingredients & Supplies Required

Ingredients

Refrigerated biscuits
Pizza sauce
Mozzarella cheese
Pepperoni

Supplies

Since this is such a simple recipe and you will only need a few tools to make up this recipe. In this recipe, the most important is of course the air fryer. When making dinner in the air fryer, I work with the Cosori 5.8QT air fryer and absolutely love it.

Make sure to have these tools too:

Medium mixing bowl
Cutting board and knife
Oven-safe baking dish (you can use either a cake barrel, ramekins, or even cupcake liners will work too!)

Choose Your Toppings

We love pepperoni pieces with this bubble pizza recipe, but pepperoni isn’t for everyone and that is okay! However, what is nice about this easy dinner is that you can change it to fit your family’s personal tastes.

Topping Ideas to Put on Air Fryer Bubble Pizza:

Chopped pineapple
Bacon bits
Grilled chicken
BBQ chicken
Green peppers
Banana peppers
Onions (white or red)
Olives

However, I could go on and on, but you get the idea! Use what your family loves. Maybe try even switching out the pizza sauce for BBQ sauce or alfredo sauce and change this recipe completely.

Can I Use Pizza Dough Instead?

If you want to use pizza dough instead of the premade biscuits you are more than welcome to do so!

However, I will say that they probably won’t get that “bubble” effect that you will get with the biscuits, but they will still be delicious!

Be sure to keep an eye on the pizza though as the cooking time will probably be slightly different too, so be sure to keep an eye on them.

What About Frozen Biscuits?

If all you have is frozen biscuits on hand, they should work, but make sure to thaw them out before you need them.

But since part of the texture of the dish is the pieces of biscuits so you will need to be able to cut them up into quarters.

How to Make Air Fryer Bubble Pizza:

Step 1: Cut the Biscuits and Sauce them Up

First, begin by removing the biscuits from the container and then cut each of the biscuits into 4 pieces.

Place all of the biscuits cut biscuits into a medium mixing bowl, and then pour in ½ of the jar of pizza sauce (you can add more if you’d like).

Next, add in the chopped pepperoni (or topping of your choice) and the shredded mozzarella cheese. And then mix everything together until it is all well distributed.

Step 2: Prepare the Baking Dish

Upon choosing the dish you want to use to make your bubble pizza, place the pizza ingredients into the baking dish(es), ungreased, and then place them into the air fryer basket.

Step 3: Bake the Bubble Pizza

Once the baking dish(es) are in the air fryer basket, close the air fryer and set the temperature to 330F or 165C.

The cooking time will depend on what you chose to cook the pizza in. Take a look at the list below and choose the correct cooking time based on your baking dish.

Cupcake liners, bake the pizza for 10-12 minutes.
Ramekins, bake the pizza for 13-14 minutes.
Cake barrel, bake the pizza for about 15 minutes.

Step 4: Sprinkle on the Cheese

After the cooking time is complete and the biscuits seem to be cooked through, remove the air fryer basket, top the bubble pizza with more mozzarella cheese and then place the basket back into the air fryer.

When you are done sprinkling the cheese on, turn the air fryer on for another 1-2 minutes at 400F or 200C to melt the cheese. Now, just carefully remove the dishes from the air fryer and serve the pizza hot!
