These tortilla pizzas are perfect for you when you need a fast meal that you can make with your eyes closed. They look fancy(ish) and taste delicious with just a few simple ingredients from the pantry and fridge.

Even better, everyone in the family can personalize their own tortilla pizza, meaning they’re happy with dinner. When is the last time that happened? Never.

Once you make these tortilla pizzas, you’ll want to tackle homemade pizza rolls in the air fryer.

Tortilla Pizza Toppings

You can personalize these pizzas to make them vegetarian, meat lovers, or vegan, or start epic social battles by covering them with pineapple. It’s YOUR PIZZA!

A few homemade suggestions: the best homemade pizza sauce recipe, vegan pesto, Sugar-Free BBQ Sauce, crumbled bacon (related: how to bake bacon in the oven), homemade sausage, or even roasted garlic and chopped basil.

When it comes to the tortillas, the large “burrito” size works great for an adult or tween/teen. If you prefer a thicker crust, use gordita-style tortillas.

To cut down on food waste, consider using street taco-sized tortillas for kiddos or others who may prefer smaller portions. They also work great as an appetizer size.

Baking Tips

If you prefer a softer crust, use a standard baking sheet. Like it super crispy? Bake it on a preheated cast-iron skillet or cast iron pizza pan

These pizzas also cook up like a dream in an air fryer. The cooking time is a little shorter in an air fryer, and they are more manageable for younger kids to use than in the oven. I do recommend parchment made for the air fryer for this recipe as it cuts down on cleaning up melty cheese.

HOW TO STORE AND REHEAT

Allow any leftover pizza to fully cool before storing slices in an air-tight container in the fridge for 2-3 days.

This pizza reheats amazingly well! Microwave it for 20-30 seconds, or at 340F for 2-6 minutes in an air fryer. You can read more details in our post on how to reheat pizza in an air fryer.

Pro Tips/Recipe Notes

  • As part of your easy meal prep, make up a bunch at a time and then freeze them uncooked for two hours on baking sheets lined with parchment. Transfer your frozen pizzas to freezer-safe storage for quick “heat and eat” meals. Homemade “fast food” at its finest.
  • For fast meals, keep unbaked pizzas covered in the fridge for up to 48 hours in air-tight containers.
  • Corn tortillas can throw off the taste of these pizzas. If you need something gluten-free, consider looking for gluten-free wraps.

  1. This tortilla pizza recipe has saved us at lunch this summer. My kid comes home from morning camp hungry and ready to eat – this quick and easily customizable recipe comes to the rescue!5 stars

  2. Of course this gets 5 stars. It’s easy, it’s quick, it’s pizza, it’s delicious! I heated mine in my cast iron skillet on the stove VERY slowly. Good crunch on the bottom. And the sky’s the limit as far as toppings. I don’t have to sacrifice for others in this situation. Win for me!5 stars

    • Yes! That is the best part – we all get what we want on it. I know everyone in my family would lose their mind if I put as much roasted garlic as I want on a community pizza.

      • Making pizza in the air fryer, I have learned that, if using pepperoni, I need to hold it down with a rack until the cheese melts or else the pepperoni wants to fly around like little bats yearning to be free.

      • I have had success putting it under the cheese when using the air fryer.

  3. We’ve done something similarI  Our difference is that we roll them up like a burrito and warm them in the microwave  
    We have a nifty “oven” that plugs into the truck’s lighter. (It looks pretty much like a lunchbox!)  We have wrapped our “pizza wraps” in foil and warmed them in that ‘oven’  when on a road trip.
    I have never thought to simply leave it in a traditional pizza form and bake it…5 stars
