Can I use pre-cooked pizza crust?

Yes! Just reduce the air fry time to about 6–7 minutes since the crust is already baked.

What other toppings can I add?

You can add jalapeños, mushrooms, or even avocado slices for fun twists.

Can I make this vegetarian?

Absolutely skip the beef and use plant-based crumbles instead.
