We love doing a meal of appetizers for different holidays, game days or just for a gathering with friends.

These are some of our favorites, and there’s something for every occasion!

How Many Different Appetizers Should I Serve?

This is a question I am constantly trying to answer myself. You definitely don’t want anyone to leave hungry but neither do you want there to be a ton of food leftover.

It also depends on the occasion. An elegant dinner party where the appetizers are just the starters to a nicer meal is a lot different than a holiday cocktail party or game day tailgating where little bites are the main event.

A rule of thumb is to make 2 or 3 appetizers for a dinner party and 5 or 6 for a cocktail party. I like to vary the dishes- maybe one savory, one slightly spicy, a lighter, healthier option, and a dip or two. And don’t forget the meat and cheese board!

Check out other delicious air fryer recipes like this Air Fryer Pork Tenderloin, Air Fryer Bacon, and JUICY Air Fryer Chicken Breast!

We’re talking about our air fryer love again today, and these juicy Air Fryer Pork Chops are sure to make any skeptic a believer!

Pork chops can be tricky to cook because they can so easily be overcooked. In the air fryer though? They are so juicy and perfect every time.

Within 25 minutes, you’ll have a delicious dinner for busy weeknights. Serve it up with Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Roasted Green Beans and one of Mom’s Homemade Buns for a balanced meal!

Why we love to air fry pork chops:

• Simple: All you need for this recipe is boneless pork chops, seasonings, and oil. It’s a super easy recipe that you’ll want to keep on repeat!
• Less mess: No need to stand around the stovetop to cook the best pork chops! The air fryer does all the heavy lifting for you, which means less clean up. 
• Versatile: Serve these delicious pork chops with whatever you like for an easy meal!

Air Fryer Pork Chop Ingredients:

• Thick-cut boneless pork chops: I prefer boneless pork chops for this recipe because they cook a little more quickly than bone-in chops.
• Oil: I used canola oil for this recipe, but any oil will work. 
• Simple seasonings: Brown sugar, seasoning salt, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, ground mustard, pepper, and paprika make an incredibly flavorful rub. You can swap for simple salt and pepper or your favorite seasoning mixture if you like!

How to make air-fried pork chops:

The air fryer does all the work in this recipe! Check out the recipe card for the full list of recipe instructions.

• Add the seasoning rub ingredients in a small bowl and mix.
• Coat the pork chops in the mixture.

• Place seasoned pork chops in the air fryer basket.
• Cook until done. Serve with your favorite sides!

Variations and Substitutions

• Add some spice: Add a bit of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the seasoning mix for a kick.
• Fresh herbs: Swap in fresh thyme or rosemary for a fragrant, savory flavor.
• Smoky: Use smoked paprika instead of regular paprika to add depth to the flavor.

How to store leftover pork chops:

Place leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months. Just let the chops thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating in the air fryer at 380ºF for 3-5 minutes. 

Serving suggestions:

Air Fryer Pork Chops pair perfectly with creamy Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes or Baked Rice and a fresh, crunchy Broccoli Salad. Take it up a notch with my Homemade Dinner Rolls or Cheesy Garlic Bread to round out the meal!

Air Fryer Pork Chops

Make juicy Air Fryer Pork Chops with this simple recipe! A few simple ingredients like boneless pork chops, oil, and seasonings create super juicy chops that are perfect for pairing with your favorite sides.

Course Air fryer, Main Course

Cuisine American

Prep Time 5 minutes minutes

Cook Time 20 minutes minutes

Total Time 25 minutes minutes

Servings 4 servings

Calories 203cal

Author Ashley Fehr

Ingredients

• 4 thick cut boneless pork chops about 1″ thick room temperature
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1½ teaspoons seasoning salt
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
• ¼ teaspoon ground mustard
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• ¼ teaspoon paprika
• 1 tablespoon oil

Instructions

• Preheat air fryer to 380℉
• Trim fat or make a few slices through the fat strip on each pork chop with a sharp knife (this will prevent them from curling up).
• Drizzle oil on pork chops. Combine brown sugar, seasoning salt, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, ground mustard, pepper and paprika. Sprinkle evenly over pork chops.
• Spray basket of air fryer with non-aerosol cooking spray (or brush lightly with additional oil)
• Place seasoned pork chops in basket and cook for 10-15 minutes. (*Note that thinner pork chops will cook more quickly. Check the temperature at the 10 minute mark — if they are nearing 145 degrees F then cook just a couple minutes more. The cook time will depend on the thickness of your pork chops)
• Serve hot with your choice of sides.

Notes

This recipe originally was simply seasoned with salt and pepper, but we love our Baked Pork Chops rub so much I wanted to bring it over here too. You can skip the rub and season with salt and pepper if you wish. 

Ingredients and Substitutions:

• Brown Sugar: this doesn’t make the pork chops very sweet, but does add some sweetness. If you don’t like sweet meat, you can reduce to 1 tablespoon.
• Seasoning salt: is a mixture of salt and other seasonings, so do not substitute with an equal amount of salt. If you don’t have seasoning salt, add ¾ to 1 teaspoon salt.

How to store leftover baked potatoes:

Store leftover baked potatoes in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days.

Reheat for 5-10 minutes at 400 degrees F, depending on how hot and crispy you want your potatoes. I recommend drying any condensation on a paper towel before reheating. 

What can I do with leftover baked potatoes?

There are so many things! Use them to make these Breakfast Potatoes for a weekend breakfast, or chop them up and use them in this Cheesy Ham and Potato Casserole.

This Air Fryer Grilled Cheese recipe pairs thick, fluffy bread slices with shredded cheese, cooking it in the air fryer until golden brown. It’s the perfect way to enjoy your favorite comfort food in less than 15 minutes!

Love easy air fryer recipes? Try this Air Fryer Quesadilla, Air Fryer Ravioli, and Air Fryer Tater Tots!

Making grilled cheese in the air fryer takes this classic sandwich to the next level! All you need is your favorite bread, a good melting cheese, and a little butter. 

This recipe is great for when you want a comforting meal or snack but don’t feel like standing over the stove. You can also customize it to your liking for a truly personalized result!

Why we love this delicious Air Fryer Grilled Cheese Sandwich:

• Crispy and golden brown: The air fryer gives you that perfect crunchy crust without the hassle of watching the stove. No mess, no fuss!
• Quick and easy: This grilled cheese is perfect for busy days when you need something warm, cheesy, and totally satisfying.
• Customizable: Switch up the bread, cheese, or add-ins like bacon or pesto to make it your own!

Air Fryer Grilled Cheese Ingredients:

• Good bread: Pick something sturdy that crisps up nicely, like sourdough, rye, or multigrain. Soft white bread works, too, but it won’t get as crunchy.
• Freshly shredded cheese: I always recommend shredding your own cheese for the best melt. Pre-grated cheese has anti-caking agents that can mess with the texture. Many types of cheese will work for this recipe, including old cheddar, gruyere, Monterey Jack, mozzarella, Swiss, or American cheese!
• Salted butter: Adds rich flavor and helps create that golden, crispy crust. You can swap it for mayo for a tangy twist.

How to make the perfect grilled cheese sandwich in the air fryer:

This Air Fryer Grilled Cheese is so easy to whip up! For the full list of recipe instructions, scroll down to the recipe card.

• Butter one side of each slice of bread. Place one slice in the air fryer basket, butter side down.
• Pile on freshly shredded cheese, then top with the second slice, butter side up. Air fry until golden and crispy, flipping halfway through.

Variations and Substitutions

• Gluten-free: Swap the bread for gluten-free bread!
• Dairy-free: Use oil instead of butter and use dairy-free cheese. 
• Make it spicy: Add a dash of hot sauce or use a spicy cheese to ramp up the heat. You can also spread some Spicy Mayo on the bread before adding the cheese for a spicy kick!
• Add-Ins: Upgrade your grilled cheese with crispy bacon, sliced tomatoes, caramelized onions, mushrooms, sliced ham, or even a smear of pesto for extra flavor.
• Use sliced cheese: You can use sliced cheese to cut down on prep time.

How to store leftover sandwiches:

Let the sandwich cool completely, then wrap it tightly in foil or store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.

For the crispiest results, reheat in the air fryer at 400ºF for a couple of minutes until warm and crispy again. A skillet also works well. Don’t microwave it, as it makes the bread soggy!

Serving suggestions:

Tomato soup is a classic (Roasted Tomato Soup if you’re feeling fancy!), but I pair this Grilled Cheese Sandwich with any of my soup recipes, including this Easy Crockpot Chili Recipe, The BEST White Chicken Chili recipe or my classic Chicken Noodle Soup.

It also pairs well with a fresh side salad, pickles, potato chips, or even air fryer French fries!

• 2 tablespoons salted butter

Instructions

• Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F.

Notes

Ingredients and Substitutions:

Bread: choose a bread that is going to get nice and crisp and crunchy in the cooking process. Sourdough works great, as does rye bread or a nice seed bread.

Cheese: choose a nice melting cheese — many will work great as long as you shred it yourself. Pre-shredded cheese is not the ticket here! Old cheddar, gruyere, mozzarella — many will work according to your tastes.

Butter: I’m not mayo’s biggest fan, but you can swap the butter on the bread for mayo and it will achieve a nice golden crust as well — with a bit of a tangy flavor.

Air Fryer French Toast is the perfect way to start your day! Made with crusty French bread in an eggy batter, it’s warmly spiced with cinnamon, sugar, and vanilla. Ready in just 15 minutes, it’s perfect for busy mornings and brunches!

If you love French toast for a sweet breakfast or brunch idea, you’ll love my French Toast Casserole or these Cinnamon Buns! Alternatively, check out my other Delicious Brunch Recipes.

We love French toast here, and it’s no wonder. It’s deliciously sweet, perfectly spiced, and it’s so easy to make!

Making French toast in the air fryer is the best way I’ve found to get those deliciously crispy edges while keeping the inside soft and fluffy.

Why we love this crispy French toast:

• Family-friendly: French toast is a classic breakfast the whole family will love.
• Quick: This air fryer is the secret weapon for making classic French toast in a fraction of the time!
• Easy: You only need 6 ingredients, and you can whip up this delicious breakfast in a flash. 

Air Fryer French Toast recipe Ingredients:

• Bread: I like to use thick slices of French bread for French toast. It keeps together nicely when coated in the batter. If your bread is a few days old, that’s even better!
• Sugar and Cinnamon: I use regular ground cinnamon and white granulated sugar for this recipe, but you can use an alternative sweetener if you prefer.
• Milk and Eggs: they make the base of the batter for French toast. Use whole milk for the richest flavor, but lower-fat milk or dairy-free milk like oat milk or almond milk.
• Vanilla Extract: adds a warmness to the toast and compliments the cinnamon well.

How to Make Air Fryer French Toast

This French toast is super quick and easy to make! Full instructions are included in the recipe card below.

• Mix together the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• Mix the eggs, milk, and vanilla in a shallow dish, then add half of the cinnamon sugar.

• Whisk together until combined. 
• Dip each bread slice in egg mixture on both sides. Remove from the egg mixture and allow excess to run off. 

• Place in the prepared air fryer basket. Repeat with all of the bread slices that will fit. Sprinkle extra cinnamon sugar on top.
• Cook each slice, flipping and cooking until completely golden brown. Serve hot.

Air Fryer French Toast Variations

• Use another bread. You can use another type of bread to make French toast, like brioche bread or cinnamon raisin for extra decadent French toast.
• French toast sticks. Cut the slices of bread into small rectangle-shaped strips, then coat them in the egg mixture and cook them in the air fryer to make French toast sticks. Reduce the cooking time as necessary, keeping an eye to make sure the sticks don’t overcook.

How do I store French toast?

Leftover French toast will last in an airtight container in the fridge once cooked for 3-5 days. To reheat, simply warm in the microwave, toast in the oven, or heat in the air fryer until heated through.

Can I freeze French toast?

Yes! Cook the French toast and let it cool. Freeze the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet until frozen. Then, store them in a ziplock bag with parchment paper between the slices. Reheat in the toaster or air fryer to get the slices crisp again!

Serving Suggestions

Serve this decadent French toast with fresh berries and fruit, with a light side of Easy Yogurt Parfait with Fresh Berries, or even this colorful Creamy Fruit Salad.

Make it savory by serving it with oven-cooked bacon or an Omelette!

Author Ashley Fehr

Ingredients

• 6-8 slices french bread 1" thick
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar (or another sweetener)
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• ½ cup milk
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 eggs

US Customary – Metric

Instructions

• Slice French bread into 1″ slices. Stir together sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees F.
• Whisk together eggs, milk, and vanilla in a shallow dish until combined. (The dish should be big enough to lay a piece of your sliced bread in to fully coat it.) Then, add half of the cinnamon sugar, this will help to prevent the cinnamon from clumping.
• Place a piece of parchment paper in the bottom of the air fryer basket and spray it with non-aerosol non-stick spray.
• Dip each bread slice in egg mixture, making sure it is coated on both sides. Remove the slice of bread from the egg mixture and allow the excess batter to run off back into the dish. Place the slice laying flat on the parchment in the air fryer.
• Repeat with all of the bread slices you can fit, in a single layer (you may have to do more than one batch). Sprinkle extra cinnamon sugar on top of the slices.
• Cook the slices until they are golden brown, this will take about 5 minutes, before flipping them over and cooking until the other side is golden brown too.
• Serve hot with fresh berries and maple syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar!

Notes

To Store: Store cooked French toast in an airtight container or plastic bag in the fridge for 3-5 days.

To reheat, simply warm in the microwave, toast in the oven, or heat in the air fryer until heated through.

To Freeze: Cook the French toast slices and let them cool completely before transferring them to a baking sheet in a single layer.

Put the full baking sheet in the freezer for 30 minutes, until the slices have just frozen.

Once frozen, transfer the slices to a ziplock bag and freeze for up to 3 months, separating them with pieces of parchment paper so they don’t stick together.

To serve, bake at 350ºF in the oven for 10 minutes (or until heated through), or reheat in the toaster or in the Air Fryer!

These Air Fryer Meatballs are a mix of beef, pork, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning for the perfect juicy bite. They cook up crispy on the outside and tender inside in just 20 minutes!

New to the air fryer? Check out my Best Air Fryer Recipes for Beginners, this JUICY Air Fryer Chicken Breast, or this Air Fryer Steak!

If you are tired of being fed dry, flavorless meatballs, you need to try these Air Fryer Meatballs! The air fryer gives these meatballs a crispy exterior while keeping them juicy on the inside.

Made with ground beef and pork, fresh breadcrumbs, and Italian seasoning, these juicy meatballs are such a great base for so many other recipes!

They’re also freezer-friendly, so you can have homemade meatballs any time you like. 

Why we love these homemade Air Fryer Meatballs:

• Quick cooking: They’re ready in about 20 minutes, so they’re great for busy weeknights when you need an easy dish.
• Juicy and golden brown: They brown up so nicely, with no oil at all! And they stay so super juicy on the inside–it’s kind of incredible.
• Easy: They’re easy to make! There’s no turning or flipping or fussing — just roll the mixture into balls and toss them in.

Ingredients for juicy Air Fryer Meatballs:

• Meat: higher fat ground meat will give juicier meatballs, however, I’ve made these with lean ground beef, and they are still delicious. 
• Bread crumbs: I’ve found that fresh, fine bread crumbs + liquid equals moist meatballs. See my note in the recipe card if you need to swap for dried!
• Water: I kept my ingredient list as simple as possible, so I soaked my bread crumbs in water, but you can use milk instead for a richer flavor.
• Cheese: Parmesan cheese adds incredible flavor, and freshly grated is best if you have it. You can leave this out if you’re serving with barbecue or an Asian-inspired sauce.
• Seasoning: Again, if you want, you can experiment! I like meatballs simply seasoned so I can use them in a variety of ways.

How to make this Air Fryer Meatball recipe:

These easy Air Fryer Meatballs are so easy to make and come out perfectly golden brown and juicy! For the full list of recipe instructions, scroll down to the recipe card.

• Tear the bread into pieces, process it into crumbs, and mix with water. Let it sit for a few minutes.
• In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, Parmesan, egg, seasonings, and soaked bread. Mix until just combined.

• Form the meat mixture into small meatballs. Place the meatballs in a single layer in the air fryer basket, and cook until they reach the right internal temperature.
• Repeat the process until all meatballs are cooked, then enjoy!

How to store leftover meatballs:

Store leftover meatballs in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave for a minute or two, or add them to your favorite sauce right from the fridge!

How to freeze Air Fryer Meatballs:

I love having a big bag of juicy homemade meatballs in the freezer — they are so perfect for adding to a simmering pot of sauce or quick weeknight meals!

To freeze, simply bake until cooked through and allow to cool for 20-30 minutes at room temperature.

Place in a zip-top freezer bag — making sure to squeeze all the air out before sealing completely. Label, place in the freezer, and freeze for up to 3 months.

To serve, you can simply throw them right from frozen into whatever sauce you have simmering. Heat through and devour.

Serving suggestions:

• This Pineapple Brown Sugar BBQ Sauce is one of our favorites and goes with everything!
• These meatballs work perfectly in this Slow Cooker Cranberry Meatballs recipe.
• Make a meatball sub sandwich with marinara sauce, homemade buns, and melty mozzarella cheese!
• Use these meatballs in Italian Wedding Soup or Italian Meatball Soup.
• Serve over this Instant Pot Brown Rice with a bottle of your favorite sweet and sour or teriyaki sauce.

These ultra crispy Air Fryer Potato Wedges are made with just a few simple ingredients and turn out perfectly every time! Golden and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Love potatoes as much as I do? Try these Air Fryer Potatoes, Air Fryer Baked Potato, and Air Fryer French Fries.

The Air Fryer is our favorite way to get food that is perfectly golden and crispy on the outside without drying out the inside, and — I promise you — these Air Fryer Potato Wedges are perfection.

The air fryer circulates hot air all around the potatoes, resulting in a crispy texture without deep frying! Plus, you need much less oil than French fries, so they’re lower in fat.

Simply seasoned, they are great paired with your favorite dipping sauce as an appetizer or a versatile side dish.

Why we love these Air-Fried Potato Wedges:

• Minimal prep: No need to peel the potatoes—just cut, soak, and season.
• Crispy yet light: The air fryer gives you that crispy texture without all the oil, making them a healthier snack or side.
• Customizable: Add as much garlic, spice, or seasoning as you like to make these wedges your own!

Ingredients for these easy Air Fryer Potato Wedges: 

• Russet potatoes: Russet potatoes are the most common potatoes for baking and work great for air frying as well. You can use any other kind of potato for this recipe, but you may have to adjust the cook time slightly.
• Canola oil: Canola oil has a neutral flavor and high smoke point, which makes it the perfect oil for air frying. Aerosol nonstick sprays are not recommended for the air fryer, and tossing the potatoes in oil before seasoning is a great way to get an even coat.
• Seasoning salt: Seasoning salt is kind of a one-shot wonder around here. It includes many different spices and seasonings that we would normally combine to season potato wedges, so if you’ve got it, use it!
• Garlic powder: Most seasoning salts include garlic powder but I like to add a little bit extra!

How to make crispy Potato Wedges in the air fryer:

Cooking these potato wedges in the air fryer is a breeze! For the full list of recipe instructions, scroll down to the recipe card.

• Cut the the potatoes in half lengthwise.
• Cut the potatoes in half again to make quarters.

• Cut each quarter into 3-4 wedges. They should be the same thickness for even cooking!
• Soak the wedges in cold water. Drain the water and pat dry with paper towels.

• Drizzle with oil, sprinkle with seasoning salt and garlic powder, and toss to coat evenly.
• Place the seasoned potato wedges in the air fryer basket and cook until golden brown and crispy, flipping them halfway through.

Should I peel my potatoes when making potato wedges?

You can, but I don’t! I prefer not to peek at my potatoes because that skin gets so perfectly crispy in the air fryer!

If your potatoes are not as fresh and are a little on the wrinkly side, you can peel them.

Do I have to soak my potatoes before air frying?

Yes and no.

Soaking the cut potatoes in cold water before air frying removes the excess starch on the outside of the potato, providing maximum crispiness!

You can skip this extra step if your family needs dinner like now. But keep in mind that you will have better results if you take the extra 30 minutes!

Serving suggestions:

Serve these homemade potato wedges with Air Fryer Chicken Tenders or the Best Oven Fried Chicken and your favorite dipping sauce like Spicy Mayo or Homemade BBQ Sauce!

Instructions

• Wash potatoes well and cut into wedges (see post above for step by step photos).
• Place potato wedges in a large bowl and fill with very cold water. Let sit for at least 30 minutes. If you want to leave them longer, simply place the bowl in the fridge and let soak for several hours.
• Drain potato wedges and dry well on a clean kitchen towel.
• Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees F according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Place potato wedges in dry bowl, drizzle with oil and sprinkle with seasoning salt and garlic powder. Toss to coat.
• Place potatoes in air fryer basket and cook for 15-20 minutes, opening to stir and flip potatoes once or twice through the cook time. *NOTE: a single layer is best but not necessary. If you only have a single layer of potatoes, they may cook more quickly so keep an eye on them. The more full your basket is, the longer it will take to cook. Be gentle when you stir and don't do it too often as the wedges can break and crumble.
• Cook to desired crispiness and serve.

These Air Fryer Chicken Wings are SERIOUSLY crispy! Served with your favorite sauce, they’re ready in just 25 minutes with minimal clean up.

Do you ever just crave a crispy, juicy, delicious basket of wings without having to go out?

For some reason, my kids love appetizers for dinner and we can make a meal out of these Air Fryer Chicken Wings with Nacho Fries and this Easy Stromboli!

The more I use my air fryer the more I love it!

Nothing beats that crispy exterior (with less oil!) and juicy interior.

Some of our other air fryer favorites are these Air Fryer Meatballs, Boneless Air Fryer Chicken Thighs and this Air Fryer Chicken Breast — they are all so juicy and flavorful.

But these wings — you have got to give them a try!

Ingredients Needed for Air Fryer Chicken Wings:

• Chicken Wings: split chicken wings are what I use for this recipe, skin on for the best crispy coating!
• Oil: this is how we get that golden exterior!
• Corn Starch: soaks up any excess moisture and creates a nice crust.
• Seasoning salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika: all add a ton of flavor! I use Lawry’s seasoning salt, but whichever is your favorite will work.
• Sauce: this is optional (they taste amazing without any), but you can use buffalo sauce, barbecue sauce, or any of your favroites! They also taste great with this Garlic Parmesan Wing Sauce.

How to make air fryer wings:

1. Preheat the air fryer so that the wings start cooking when you get them in there. While it’s doing this, dry the wings with paper towel well (wet meat doesn’t brown!).
2. Oil and season the chicken wings. Mixing corn starch into your seasoning is the key, because corn starch coats the wings easily and absorbs any excess moisture– making the crispiest chicken wings you’ve ever had.
3. Then the air fryer does the rest of the work! You only have to flip them once during cooking, and they turn out so crispy and perfectly juicy!

They are just as easy as making these Crockpot Chicken Wings, but they come together even quicker!

Air Fryer Chicken Wings FAQs

How to split chicken wings:

If you can’t find already split chicken wings, you can split for own!

• Cut wings into three pieces. Start by stretching out the wing on your cutting board and cutting between the joint of the drumette and the wingette.
• Then make a second cut between the wingette and the wing tip.
• Place drumettes and wingettes in a large bowl. You can save and freeze the wing tips to make chicken stock!

How to cook frozen chicken wings in the air fryer:

Cooking frozen chicken wings in the air fryer is easy to do!

Simply toss in oil and seasoning as the recipe calls for, and cook for 10 minutes, then flip and continue cooking for 10-20 minutes until done and crispy, checking every 5-10 minutes until done.

The only problem you make encounter is that the coating and seasoning does not stick as well with frozen chicken wings, since they will release some moisture as they cook. If this happens, you can season again and cook for 5-8 minutes until crispy.

How to Reheat Pizza in the Air Fryer with just a few quick and easy steps! Once you master this foolproof technique you’ll never reheat pizza any other way again. It’s like enjoying a fresh slice every single time!

Check out more kitchen basic “how to” staples like How to Freeze Bananas, How to Cook Frozen Chicken Breasts and How to Cut a Pineapple.

If you’re a cold pizza lover, this is not for you! For the rest of us who like our pizza slices to be nice and hot, grab your air fryer and let me show you the best way to Reheat Pizza in the Air Fryer. (Really, this is the only way I reheat slices of pizza anymore)!

Well, I do have plenty of knowledge of How to Reheat Pizza using the oven and it’s also pretty nifty when I’m feeding the family. However, the oven is really ideal for when you have a lot of slices or even a whole pizza to reheat.

Using the air fryer to reheat pizza is perfect for when you have a slice or two that you want reheated to the original consistency quickly!

So next time you need a quick pizza pick-me-up in the middle of the day, skip the microwave and enjoy a crispy, cheesy, perfectly reheated piece of pizza in just a few minutes.

Why we love reheating pizza in the air fryer:

• Quick: The air fryer is famous for being fast. It preheats quickly and shortens that cook time.
• Crispy: When you use the air fryer, it crisps up the pizza crust nicely, whereas the microwave notoriously makes a once great pizza so soggy.
• Good as New: Yes! I swear, reheating a 2 day old refrigerated pizza slice in the air fryer makes it taste just like it was when it was first baked.
• Versatile: This air fryer method works for just about any piece of leftover pizza you have in your fridge, no matter what the toppings are.

What You’ll Need

• Leftover Pizza – This quick reheating method is for leftover pizza only, not for cooking pizza! It can be pizza from the night before that you got from your local restaurant or pizza that you made from scratch. Want to make homemade pizza so you’ve got leftovers to reheat? Try my Quick and Easy Pizza Dough (it’s a reader favorite!).
• Here are a few of our favorite homemade pizzas that are just as delicious reheated!
  • BBQ Philly Cheesesteak Pizza — packed full of flavor.
  • Chicken Alfredo Pizza — so creamy and comforting!
  • Taco Pizza — the best mash up!
  • Breakfast Pizza — for breakfast, lunch or brinner!

How to Store Pizza in the Fridge

The air fryer can only do so much! If the pizza isn’t stored properly or it’s too old, even the air fryer may not be able to save the day. Here’s a few quick tips on how to perfectly store your leftover pizza:

• Pick the right container. If you’re only planning to keep the pizza in your fridge for 24 hours or less, you can always just keep it in the cardboard box it came in. However, any longer than one day and it’ll dry out pretty quickly. I like using zip-top bags or food storage containers for pizza to keep it fresh for longer.
• Don’t keep it for too long. Even in an airtight container, pizza only has a shelf life of about 2-3 days in the fridge. After that it usually starts to really become stale.
• Let it cool before storing. If you toss a hot piece of pizza into an airtight container in the fridge, condensation will form. That means two things – bacteria will grow AND the crust will get soggy from the moisture. Always let your pizza cool fully to room temperature prior to storing.

Can I reheat frozen pizza in the Air Fryer?

Absolutely! I often individually wrap and freeze leftover pizza slices for the kids to have in their lunches or when they need something quick.

You can pop your frozen slices of pizza right in the air fryer to reheat — just add an extra minute or two, but be sure to keep an eye on it!

How to Reheat Pizza in the Air Fryer

Toss it in, reheat and enjoy! That’s pretty much all there is to it. For even more details, scroll on down to the recipe card at the bottom of the page.

• Preheat your air fryer to 350°F.
• Place the pizza slice(s) in the basket or rack of your air fryer.
• Cook for just 3-4 minutes, or until the crust has reached your desired level of crispiness!

• Place pizza slices in the basket or on the rack of the air fryer — I like to skip the parchment for maximum air flow (crispy crust!), but you can save yourself some clean up and put them on a piece of parchment if you like.
• Cook for 3-4 minutes, and then add a minute or two at a time until the pizza is heated through to your liking and the bottom crust is crisped.
• Serve.

Notes

We have two air fryers and love them both! 

We have this Chefman Turbofry 8 quart air fryer, and we also have a smaller 3.6 quart Chefman air fryer (affiliate links).

Every air fryer will heat differently, so get to know your model and adjust as necessary.
