Ingredients

- Pizza sauce4 tbsp
- Grated mozzarella1 cup
- Chopped capsicum and corn1/2 cup
- Oregano1 tsp
Method
Cut the bases
Use a round cutter or the rim of a glass to stamp small circles out of each bread slice. Toast the leftover trimmings separately as crunchy little croutons so none of the bread goes to waste.
Sauce them up
Spread a thin, even layer of pizza sauce over each bread circle, leaving a small border at the rim. Keep the layer thin so it does not soak into the bread and turn the crisp base soft and soggy.
Add toppings
Scatter the chopped capsicum and corn over the sauce, then cover generously with the grated mozzarella and a sprinkle of oregano. Piling the cheese to the edge helps it seal and melt into a bubbly top.
Air-fry till bubbly
Arrange the bites in a single layer in the basket and air-fry at 180°C for 7 min, until the cheese is fully melted, bubbling and lightly golden at the edges. Let them cool a minute so the cheese sets.
