Ingredients:
3-4 slices bread
½ cup pizza sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
4 slices tomato
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon dried basil
1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions:
Start by preparing the bread. Lay the slices of bread on a clean work surface or cutting board.
Lightly brush each slice of bread with olive oil. This helps the bread crisp nicely in the air fryer and adds extra flavor.
Spread about 1 to 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce evenly over each slice of bread. Make sure the sauce covers most of the surface but avoid spreading it all the way to the edges to prevent dripping during cooking.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over each slice. Use enough cheese to fully cover the sauce layer.
Place one tomato slice in the center of each toast.
Sprinkle dried oregano, garlic powder, and dried basil evenly over the cheese and tomato.
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3 minutes.
Carefully place the prepared pizza toasts into the air fryer basket in a single layer. Make sure they do not overlap so the hot air can circulate properly.
Cook the pizza toast at 375°F (190°C) for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted, bubbly, and slightly golden on top.
Once cooked, carefully remove the pizza toast from the air fryer and allow it to cool for about 1 minute before serving.
Serve warm as a quick snack, lunch, or light dinner.
