How To Make Copycat Domino’s Cheeseburger Pizza Recipe

Step One: Preheat air fryer to 375°F for 3–5 minutes. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with salt and pepper. Drain excess grease and set aside. Mix the ketchup and mustard in a small bowl to create the burger-style sauce.
Step Two: Roll out a small portion of pizza dough to fit your air fryer basket (about 6–7 inches across). Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil or use parchment.

Step Three: Spread a thin layer of burger sauce over the dough. Add cooked ground beef. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese. Top with thinly sliced red onions and dill pickle slices.
Step Four: Set air fryer temperature to 375 degrees F and set cook time for 6-8 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Cooking time may vary depending on your air fryer model. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Copycat Domino’s Cheeseburger Pizza Recipe Tips
- Pre-cook your beef – Brown and season the ground beef before adding it to your pizza to prevent excess grease and ensure full flavor.
- Don’t skip the sauce combo – The ketchup and mustard blend gives it that signature cheeseburger taste. Add a pinch of garlic powder or paprika for extra depth.
- Use parchment paper – Line your air fryer basket with parchment to prevent sticking and make cleanup a breeze.
- Thin toppings for even cooking – Slice onions and pickles thinly so they cook through and crisp slightly in the air fryer.
- Customize it – Add extras like chopped bacon, diced tomatoes, or a drizzle of burger sauce on top after air frying for a fun twist.

Copycat Domino’s Cheeseburger Pizza Recipe Faq’s
Can I use store-bought dough for this recipe? Yes! Pre-made pizza dough or even refrigerated crescent roll dough works great for a quick and easy crust.
What kind of cheese does Domino’s use on their Cheeseburger Pizza? Domino’s uses a combination of cheddar and mozzarella for a rich, melty texture. You can stick with that or try Colby Jack or American for extra cheeseburger vibes.
Can I make this pizza ahead of time? You can prep all the toppings in advance, but it’s best to assemble and air fry just before serving so the crust stays crispy.
Can I use a regular oven instead of an air fryer? Absolutely! Bake at 450°F for 10–12 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Should I add pickles before or after cooking? Add them before cooking for a warm, tangy flavor or after for a crisp, fresh bite—totally up to your taste!
