When it comes to tortilla pizza, our favorite flavor is margherita: a great pizza sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, and fresh basil. But you can customize this any way you like! The only thing to keep in mind? Chop the toppings very small, and don’t overload the pizza. Because a tortilla is not as strong as a standard crust, you’ll need small and light toppings. Here are some flavor combination ideas (scale down the quantities for personal-sized pizza):

Whole Wheat Tortilla Pizzas With Arugula + Prosciutto

I guess it isn’t so NEW. Like many, I used to make tortilla pizzas back in high school. You know, along with my microwaved nacho days. And microwaved cheese quesadilla days. Let’s just say we went through a ton of tortillas and cheese in our house!

Back then, my tortilla pizzas were boring. Cheese, sauce, toss in the microwave. Boom, that’s it. Eventually, I learned that throwing the tortilla in the oven was a much better (crispier!) idea. And that different toppings made it taste, well… different. Each time.

SO let’s talk about the chickpeas. I came across these pepperoni chickpeas here , I think they were actually first in Delicious magazine. I was so intrigued. And I had to make them!

Best Air Fryer Tortilla Pizza

As a huge lover of chickpeas in general, and an even bigger lover of roasted, crispy chickpeas, these were made for me.

Oddly enough, I am NOT a huge pepperoni fan, but I can be swayed. Especially if the pepperoni is super crispy and crunchy.

I made my own little spice mix for the chickpeas – the best that I thought would mimic pepperoni flavor. Lots of smoked paprika, some minced onion and garlic. I will say that these will be even more pepperoni-ish if you use fennel seeds. I loathe fennel seeds. They are up there with raw celery as a few ingredients that I wish would take a long walk off a short pier. Not.a.fan. So I skipped it! But you could add them. I won’t tell.

Tortilla Pizza Margherita

The other move I made with the chickpeas: toasting them in a skillet until crispy. I did this because I love crispy chickpeas so much AND because I wanted to activate some of those spices with a little heat. You probably could skip this is you want to be low maintenance. You could just toss the chickpeas with the spices and throw them right on your tortilla. Then this would be, like, a 12 minute recipe. FAST!

I don’t know if I can adequately explain how much I love this. It’s so simple, but very flavorful. There is lots of texture, which is a must for me. The tortilla gets fabulously crisp and crunchy.

I like to do a very thin layer of sauce. A sprinkle of cheese. The pepperoni chickpeas, some crushed red pepper, a little parmesan.

Quick Tortilla Pizza

The best part is that these are really customizable. You can use pesto or marinara. You could use another kind of cheese too! Any size tortilla works – depending on how much you want to eat or how many you’re serving. You can use any tortilla too! I’ve used traditional flour, whole wheat and even the almond flour tortillas.

In the directions below I’m going to use burrito sized tortillas, but you can easily switch sizes or scale these down. Or up!

I also LOVE this for lunch. If you happen to still be working from home, it’s very easy to throw together. You can season the chickpeas ahead of time and store them in the fridge. Assemble your tortilla in 5 minutes, bake it for 10, and it’s ready.

. And I have to say– this recipe came together in desperation for some ‘za. A time when a mama just wanted some pizza and the refrigerator came to the rescue with all of the ingredients I needed to have delicious pizza without the delivery.

Faster than ordering and waiting for it to be delivered, or going to the grocery store and buying a frozen one, or rolling out your own pizza dough and making one from scratch any day.

The best tortillas we find for these tortilla pizzas are the 8 or 10 inch “gordita style.” We’ve used burrito style, whole wheat, and corn tortillas, and these ones just work the best.

That’s not to say you can’t use whatever tortilla you have on hand or prefer. We’ve just done extensive pizza research (it’s such a hard life), and we found this style and size to be the best.

Now, of course, you have to remember you’re working with a tortilla. This is not the time for the most ridiculous combination of toppings you can think of.

This is the time for some pepperoni, sausage crumbles (SO GOOD), shredded broccoli, or spinach. Leave the ham and pineapple for another day.

A mere 5 minutes in the oven or even just in the toaster oven, and you are ready to go with your tasty ‘za before you could even finish dictating your order to the pizza delivery place.

Skillet Tortilla Pizza Recipe

I can’t tell you how many of these tortilla pizzas we have made over the last several years. I mean, I was basically living on them for dinner pretty much daily when Matt started teaching evening classes and our first son was going to bed around 9pm.

While I wouldn’t assemble my tortilla pizza ahead of time to bake later, I would assemble and freeze it. Wrap tightly and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator, then bake as directed.

While the instructions are written for the oven, you can easily make this in thetoaster oven(toast for 5 minutes) orair fryer (350ºF [177ºC] for 6-8 minutes).
