Instructions
 

  • Melt the butter and add the spices.
  • Toss the biscuits pieces in the butter mixture.
  • Spray the bunt pan with oil. Start by adding the cheese and pepperonis, followed by the biscuits pieces. Continue layering to fill the pan.
  • Place pan in the air fryer basket and cook on 350℉ for 7 minutes.
  • Remove pan from the air fryer basket. Flip the bunt pan over onto a sheet of aluminum foil, the set the pan top down in the air fryer basket. Cook on 380℉ for 8 minutes. This will allow for the whole loaf to be cooked.
  • Remove, let cool and remove from pan.
  • Serve with pizza sauce as dipping sauce.

Christina’s Notes

  • Don’t Overcrowd the Basket: Spread the dough pieces loosely in the air fryer basket or dish. This allows hot air to circulate, giving you that golden, crispy outside and soft, fluffy inside.
  • Layer the Cheese and Toppings: Mix shredded mozzarella and mini pepperoni (or any favorite toppings) with the dough before air frying. This helps every bite taste like pizza, not just the top.
  • Spray for Crispiness: A quick mist of cooking spray over the top before air frying helps the bread brown nicely and adds a bit of crunch.
  • Check Early for Doneness: Air fryers vary! Start checking around the 8-minute mark. It’s done when the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into a doughy piece comes out clean.
  • Serve with Warm Marinara: A side of marinara or pizza sauce for dipping takes it over the top and really delivers on the pizza vibe.
Helpful Tips for All RecipesThese quick tips will help you get perfect results every time.

  • Scale the recipe: Simply adjust the serving size in the recipe card and the ingredients will update automatically.
  • Make your own All Purpose Seasoning: When a recipe calls for All Purpose Seasoning, you can use my homemade All Purpose Seasoning recipe or substitute salt and pepper to taste.
  • Meat doneness: I always use a meat thermometer to test for doneness when cooking meat.
  • Use unsalted butter: I use unsalted butter so I can control the salt level in the recipe.
  • Preheat the oven: Unless otherwise noted, always preheat your oven before baking.
