Air Fryer Pizza bombs from Scratch with step wise pictorial and video method.

An interesting twist to regular pizza by making it in balls shape having all the pizza stuffing inside.

Looks like ladi pav or dinner rolls, these balls have everything inside what you can see on your pizza base.

Earlier also, we have posted a pizza bombs recipe but that recipe is altogether different. That wasn’t made with perfect pizza dough and prepared in apple pan. You can call that a cheat recipe of pizza bombs. If interested, you can look upon that recipe by clicking here.

Pizza bombs are the perfect recipe to serve to the guests and it will definitely be loved by them, especially kids.

You can also pack them in the tiffin box and kids are definitely going to enjoy with their mates.

INGREDIENTS USED IN MAKING PIZZA BALLS

FLOUR : To keep them healthy, we have used whole wheat flour. Alternatively, you can use all purpose flour as well.

SUGAR : sugar helps in activating yeast. No need to ask that only brown sugar works. You can use white sugar, honey, jaggery powder or maple syrup as well.

YEAST : Active or Instant, go for any yeast you have in hand. Yes, active yeast needs prior activation whereas Instant yeast is added directly to the flour without any activation.

STUFFING STUFF: We have used that very regular stuffing for pizza bombs which we generally do for our pizza. Pizza sauce, mozzarella, bell pepper, onion and seasoning are something we love to have on our pizza, so in pizza bombs. But you are bound to carry on with the same stuffing. Go for anything you love on your pizza, be it veg, non-veg or vegan, choice is your’s.
