PREPARATION FOR MINI PITA PIZZA

  • Preheat The Oven: Set your oven to 200°C (400°F). If using an air fryer, preheat it to 180°C (350°F). 

 

  • Prepare The Pita Base: Place the pita bread on a baking tray or pizza stone. If you prefer an extra crispy base, lightly toast the pita in the oven for 2 minutes before adding toppings. 

 

  • Spread The Sauce: Evenly spread one tablespoon of marinara sauce over the pita, leaving a small border around the edges for a crust-like effect. 

 

  • Add Cheese: Sprinkle two tablespoons of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce. Make sure the cheese reaches the edges for an even melt. 

 

  • Top With Pepperoni (Optional): Place 2 slices of pepperoni on top of the cheese, or add any toppings of your choice. 

 

  • Bake The Pizza: Place the tray in the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly. If using an air fryer, cook for 5-6 minutes. 

 

  • Cool And Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing and enjoying. 

PREP TIME

5 minutes

COOKING TIME

8-10 minutes (Oven) or 5-6 minutes (Air Fryer)

TIPS FOR MINI PITA PIZZA

  • Crispier Base: For an extra crispy pita crust, bake the pita without toppings for 2 minutes before adding sauce and cheese.
  • Cheese Melting Tip: If you like extra gooey cheese, cover the pita loosely with foil while baking to help the cheese melt evenly.
  • Even Toppings: Spread cheese and toppings evenly to prevent any part from burning before the rest is cooked.
  • Customisation: Use different sauces like pesto, barbecue, or alfredo for unique flavours.
  • Serving Suggestion: Pair with a side salad or soup for a complete meal.

VARIATIONS

  • Vegetarian Option: Skip the pepperoni and add bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, or spinach for a veggie-packed pizza.
  • Protein Boost: Add grilled chicken, turkey pepperoni, or tofu crumbles for extra protein.
  • Dairy-Free Alternative: Use dairy-free mozzarella or nutritional yeast for a plant-based version.
  • Low-Carb Version: Replace pita with a cauliflower crust or a low-carb tortilla.
  • Gluten-Free Option: Use a gluten-free pita or flatbread to cater to dietary needs.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Refrigeration: Store leftover pita pizza in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • Reheating: Reheat in an oven at 180°C (350°F) for 5 minutes or in an air fryer for 3 minutes to keep it crispy.
  • Freezing: Assemble the pizza without baking, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and freeze for up to 1 month. When ready to eat, bake directly from frozen at 200°C (400°F) for 12-15 minutes.
