Ingredients for Making Delicious Tortilla Pizza- 1 Tortilla
- 3 Tbsp Tomato Pasta Sauce
- 1/3 Onion
- 1/3 King Oyster Mushroom
- 6 Olives
- 1 strip Bacon
- Generous amount of Pizza Cheese
- 1 slice Cheddar Cheese
- 1 Tbsp Frozen Chopped Basil
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the ingredients for your pizza toppings. Finely dice the onion and king oyster mushroom. Cut the bacon into 2-3 cm pieces. Slice the whole olives into 4-5 smaller pieces for a pleasant texture in every bite.
Step 2
Take a tortilla and spread the tomato pasta sauce evenly over it. I used a large tortilla and found that 3 tablespoons of sauce was just the right amount. Feel free to adjust the sauce quantity to your liking.
Step 3
Now, layer your prepared toppings on top of the sauce in your desired order. I like to layer the onion, mushrooms, and then the bacon. Arrange them beautifully for a visually appealing pizza.
Step 4
After adding the olives, generously sprinkle about 2 handfuls of pizza cheese over the toppings. The sight of melty, gooey cheese will make your mouth water!
Step 5
The cheddar cheese slice is optional, but if you desire a richer and nuttier flavor, I recommend tearing it and placing it on top of the pizza, just like I did. It adds another layer of cheesy goodness.
Step 6
Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of frozen chopped basil over the cheese. While this step can be skipped, adding basil significantly enhances the aroma and flavor of the pizza, making it even more delightful.
Step 7
Preheat your air fryer to 190°C (375°F) for 5 minutes. Once preheated, carefully place your assembled bacon basil tortilla pizza into the air fryer basket.
Step 8
Bake for approximately 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the pizza is golden brown. Cooking time may vary slightly depending on your air fryer model, so keep an eye on it to achieve your desired level of doneness.
Step 9
Voila! Your delicious tortilla bacon pizza is perfectly cooked and ready to be taken out of the air fryer. It looks and smells absolutely amazing!
Step 10
Slice the pizza into 6 equal pieces. This makes it easy to handle and share with others.
Step 11
And there you have it! Your homemade air fryer bacon basil tortilla pizza, perfect for a delightful home brunch. Now, all that’s left is to enjoy this tasty creation!
