Yes! After you make the homemade dough, place it in either a freezer bag or an airtight container for safe storage and place the dough in the freezer for up to 3 months.

How to make this Air Fryer Homemade Pizza:
Step 1: Mix homemade pizza dough ingredients
In the bowl of an electric stand mixer with a dough hook, mix together the water, honey, oil, yeast, and salt.
Mix in about 1 ½ cups flour, then gradually add more until a soft dough forms and clears the sides of the bowl. The dough will be soft, smooth, and tacky, but should not stick to fingers.
Step 2: Knead dough
Let the dough knead in the mixer for about 2-3 minutes. (If kneading by hand, it will take 5-6 minutes.) Then cover the dough and let the dough rest for 10 minutes.
Step 3: Shape pizza dough
After the dough has rested, split the crust dough into three equal portions.
Now, roll out the dough onto a piece of parchment paper or a silicone mat and shape it into a pizza disc shape.
Then lightly prick the surface of the dough with a fork, to help prevent bubbles while baking.
Step 4: Bake pizza crust
Place the crust into the bottom of the air fryer basket, and pre-bake the crust for 5-7 min at 370˚F/178˚C in the air fryer basket.
Then spread the sauce and toppings carefully on top of the pizza crust, then air fry at 370 degrees F or 178 degrees C for about 5 more minutes or until the cheese is melted. Enjoy!
