How To Make Air Fryer Pesto & Spinach Naan Pizza
Start by spraying your air fryer basket or air fryer tray with non-stick cooking spray.
Place your naan in the basket or air fryer tray. Spread the pesto sauce over the naan bread.
Cut up your cherry tomatoes, and sprinkle them on the naan, followed by the cooked spinach and shredded mozzarella cheese.

Tips For Making Air Fryer Naan Pizza
- You can toast the Naan bread or add your toppings for the best results so that your bread is crispy. This will depend on your Air Fryer Model and where the heating element is located in the Air Fryer.
- Add any of your favorite toppings; you can also substitute the pesto sauce for a traditional red marinara sauce if desired.
- If you need to cut the Naan bread for it to fit in the Air Fryer, that is fine, the recipe will work exactly the same.
- Check on your pizza, while it is cooking up, to make sure that it isn’t getting too browned, remember every air fryer is slightly different. So the timing may vary.

Just like any pizza, this Naan pizza can have several different toppings. Some of my favorite variations are:
