Air Fryer Pita Pizza

Ingredients

• 2 pita breads or wraps
• 1 cup grated cheese
• 2 tbsp ketchup or pizza sauce (or sliced tomato)
• ½ capsicum, sliced (optional)
• ½ onion, sliced (optional)
• 3 mushrooms, sliced (optional)
• Green chilli, sliced (optional)
• Oregano, to sprinkle (optional)

Steps

1. Spread the sauce over the pita in a thin, even layer, leaving a small border so it doesn't spill over the edges as it cooks.
2. Scatter over the cheese, then the capsicum, onion, mushrooms and chilli - go easy on the toppings so the base still crisps instead of steaming under a heavy pile.
3. Finish with a sprinkle of oregano.
4. Preheat the air fryer and place the pita directly in the basket, or on a small tray if your basket has large holes.
5. Air fry at 180°C for 3 minutes.
6. Check the cheese and continue for another 3 minutes (6 minutes total) until it's fully melted and the base has crisped at the edges.
7. Lift the underside with a spatula to confirm it's firmed up, not just the top.
8. Slide onto a board, slice, and serve hot.

Tip: Leftover chicken tikka makes a great topping.
