Gotta say those mini-oven style air fryers which use common electric heating elements instead of halogen bulbs cook truly epic pizza, whether cooking pizza made with fresh dough, or heavily processed and frozen - simply preheat to max for a few minutes on "Toast" setting (this switches on all available elements above and below), placing the pizza top oven, and the very rapid result is damn close to what a commercial pizza oven would produce. I'm liking my new ultra efficient and cheapo air fryer a lot, cooks everything well, very versatile. Pizza stone is required for cooking fresh home made pizza, because fresh dough is floppy, but you could part cook the underside of the pizza base on a suitably large cast iron frying pan beforehand, so it doesn't fall through the wire rack, then cook in the oven using only the top heating elements. But you'd get more even far-infrared radiant heat cooking from below using a preheated pizza stone, as there is in a proper wood-fired oven. Alternatively, you could use a baking tray and all the heating elements. This is awful, because now I'm thinking about pizza yet again...
