Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza

Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza

This quick, easy, and delicious Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza will not only satisfy your pizza cravings but also save you time and effort.

Why Choose Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza?

  1. Fast: Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza takes a fraction of the time compared to traditional pizza. Perfect for those busy weeknights when you’re craving a homemade slice without the fuss.
  2. Customizable: You can personalize each pizza to suit individual tastes. Whether you’re a meat or veggie lover, the Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza welcomes creativity.

Ingredients:

  • Flour tortilla (I like using a whole wheat tortilla).
  • Pizza sauce.
  • Shredded mozzarella cheese. You can also use cheddar or your favorite blend.
  • Italian seasoning.

Healthier Option

Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza isn’t just about convenience; it’s also a healthier option compared to its oven-baked counterpart. Here’s why:

  • Reduced Oil Usage
    Traditional pizza often requires a substantial amount of oil in the crust or pan-frying process. With an air fryer, you can achieve that crispy texture without a need of oil, making it a lighter and healthier treat.
  • Portion Control
    The smaller size of tortillas naturally limits the portion size, helping you keep your pizza consumption in check.

Why Choose Air Frying?

Air fryers use hot air circulation to cook food, drastically reducing the need for a lot of oil. This means you can enjoy your favorite fried foods with significantly less fat and calories. Plus, it’s a quicker and more energy-efficient way to cook, which is perfect for those busy weeknight dinners. Air Fryer Buying Guide.

Cottage Cheese Queso Dip

This easy and flavorful Cottage Cheese Queso Dip is the perfect cheesy dip for a party or simply to enjoy as a healthy snack. It is great as a side dish.

Gather all Ingredients for this Cottage Cheese Queso Dip

To get started, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • Cottage cheese: cottage cheese is a soft, lumpy cheese made from curds that are drained of whey. With its mild flavor and unique texture, it is a versatile ingredient in both sweet and savory dishes.
  • Cheddar cheese: Cheddar cheese is a firm and smooth-textured cheese known for its distinctively sharp taste. Made from cow’s milk, it undergoes a maturation process that contributes to its rich flavor.
  • Taco seasoning: Taco seasoning is a flavorful blend of spices crafted to add a zesty kick to any Mexican-inspired dishes. Typically combining ingredients like chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, and oregano. I was using the “McCormick Taco Seasoning Mix”.
  • Pico de gallo (for garnish): Pico de Gallo is a vibrant and refreshing condiment from Mexican cuisine. This uncooked salsa is a wonderful mix of diced tomatoes, onions, cilantro, jalapeños, and lime juice. The combination of these fresh ingredients creates a burst of flavors and textures, with the tomatoes providing juiciness, the onions adding crunch, and the cilantro and lime infusing a zesty brightness.
  • Fresh cilantro (for garnish): Cilantro is a vibrant herb with its bright green, feathery leaves and distinctive citrusy flavor.

Chocolate Fudge Cupcakes

Chocolate Fudge Cupcakes

These delicious Chocolate Fudge Cupcakes are super chocolaty and topped with a chocolate fudge ganache. And, they’re so easy to make.

Gather all Ingredients

To get started, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • Ganache frosting: semi-sweet chocolate chips and heavy cream.
  • Cupcakes dry ingredients: whole wheat flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder (or instant espresso), baking powder, baking soda, and salt. My favorite white whole wheat flour is the King Arthur, 100% Organic White Whole Wheat Flour.
  • Cupcakes wet ingredients and light brown sugar: eggs, maple syrup, light brown sugar, light olive oil, pure vanilla extract, and buttermilk.
Gather all Ingredients

How to make Chocolate Fudge Cupcakes

  1. Ganache Frosting Preparation

    Place chocolate chips in a heat proof bowl. Pour the heavy cream into a small saucepan and place over medium heat. Heat until it simmers, then pour over the chopped chocolate. Stir together until the chocolate has melted completely. Refrigerate until it sets and thickens.

  2. Prepare and preheat

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners. Set aside.

  3. Mix cupcake ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, maple syrup, light brown sugar, oil, buttermilk, and vanilla together until completely smooth. Then, in another bowl whisk the flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl until thoroughly combined. Add flour mixture to the batter and mix just until well combined. Do not over mix. The batter will be thin.

  4. Bake cupcakes

    Pour or spoon the batter into the liners. Bake for 18-21 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  5. Frost cupcakes

    Once the cupcakes have cooled completely, use a hand mixer to beat the chocolate ganache until it is spreadable. Pipe or spread over the cooled cupcakes and let it firm up before serving. Enjoy!

Chocolate Fudge Cupcakes: Frequently Asked Questions

Can I freeze chocolate fudge cupcakes?

Yes, you can freeze cupcakes by placing them in an airtight container. Thaw at room temperature before serving.

What toppings can I use for chocolate fudge cupcakes?

Sprinkles, chocolate shavings, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of caramel or raspberry sauce are popular choices.

How can I prevent my cupcakes from sinking in the middle?

Avoid over mixing the batter, ensure accurate measurements, and don’t open the oven door too soon. Sinking can also be caused by underbaking (a toothpick inserted in the center should comes out clean).

What’s the secret to moist chocolate fudge cupcakes?

Adding ingredients like sour cream, yogurt, or buttermilk can contribute to moisture. I like using buttermilk for this recipe. Be careful not to over bake, as this can also result in dry cupcakes.
