Ingredients:
- 1 loaf (225g) French Bread
- 20ml Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 120ml Premium Pizza Sauce
- 150g Whole-milk Mozzarella cheese, freshly shredded
- 40g Mini Pepperoni
- 5g Dried Oregano
- 10g Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
- Use a serrated knife to cut the French bread in half lengthwise, then slice into sections (approximately 6 inches) that fit your air fryer basket.
- In a small bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil and minced garlic. Brush the cut side of the bread generously with the mixture.
- Place the bread in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 90 seconds to create a 'Fat Barrier' that prevents sauce from making the bread soggy.
- Remove bread and spread a thin layer of pizza sauce, leaving a 1/4 inch border at the edges.
- Layer the shredded mozzarella heavily over the sauce to anchor toppings.
- Add the mini pepperoni and sprinkle with dried oregano.
- Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for an additional 6-8 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
- Finish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
