What time and temperature to cook

The answer depends on the size of the frozen pizza. There are several options in the freezer aisle from thin crust, deep dish to French bread. This will effect the cooking time.

In general it will take anywhere from 6-15 minutes. I recommend checking on the pizza at 6 minutes, especially thin crust. Add time as needed.

I made a DiGiorno four cheese original crust pizza in my Cosori 5.8 quart. It took 8 minutes to cook through.

Frozen French bread pizza in air fryer

Each machine cooks a little different but air fryer frozen French bread pizza takes anywhere from 12-17 minutes at 380 degrees F. I recommend checking at 10 minutes and add extra time if needed.

Recipe tips

If you find that your pizza is cooking too fast on the top, lower the temperature to 360 or 370 degrees F.
For a crunchier crust, spray lightly with olive oil. This is optional.
Feel free to add additional toppings to your frozen pizza. Be sure to cut them small and thin and then add to the top of pizza before cooking.
