    • Carefully place the prepared pita pizzas in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overlapping.
  7. Air Fry:
    • Cook the pita pizzas in the air fryer for about 5-7 minutes or until the cheese is melted, and the edges of the pita are golden brown.
  8. Check for Doneness:
    • Keep an eye on the pizzas as cooking times may vary depending on your air fryer model. Check for doneness and adjust the time accordingly.
  9. Finish with Seasoning:
