Naan bread pizza in air fryer:
There are so many ways you can cook these pizzas.
One of my favorites is the air fryer. If you do use the air fryer and have a lot of toppings, top the naan bread pizzas with a grate to insure all the toppings don’t fly off when cooking.
To cook the naan bread pizzas in the air fryer cook on air fry at 390 F for 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted.
What To Serve With Naan Bread Pizzas:
Serve these pizzas with an easy side like fruit, soup or salad. Here are some of my favorites:

Chili’s Chicken Enchilada Soup (Only 3 ingredients)
Traditional Minestrone Soup In The Instant Pot
