Air Fryer Pizza Quesadilla

Equipment

  • 1 Air Fryer

Ingredients

  1. 2 flour tortillas 8-inch
  2. 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  3. 10 slices pepperoni
  4. 2 tablespoon pizza sauce
  5. ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  6. ½ teaspoon butter melted and unsalted
  7. ½ teaspoon Parmesan cheese

Instructions

    •  Remove tortillas from packaging and brush one side of each tortilla with melted butter.
    • Place each tortilla in air fryer basket, brushed side down. 3. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce, pepperoni slices, shredded cheese, and Italian seasoning on top of tortilla.
  1. Fold each tortilla in half and gently press together or seal them with a toothpick.
  2. Air fry at 350 degrees F for 8-10 minutes, flipping the tortilla halfway through cooking time, until you have a crispy tortilla that is golden brown. After two minutes of air frying, open basket and if tortillas have opened, gently press together. The melted cheese will now keep them sealed.
  3. Remove tortillas and brush again with a light coat of butter then sprinkle with parmesan cheese before serving.

Notes

I make this recipe in my Cosori 5.8 qt. air fryer or 6.8 quart air fryer. Depending on your air fryer, size and wattages, cooking time may need to be adjusted 1-2 minutes.

An easy way to store leftovers is to let them cool after cooking and then place quesadillas in an airtight container to save for later. Leftovers of this make for a quick dinner. You can also wrap leftovers in plastic wrap and store them in the fridge as well.
