  • Unroll a sheet of focaccia dough. Use a pastry cutter or mold of about 3 inches to make circles. If you like, you can use the leftover dough, roll it out, and cut out more discs. You can also choose the size you prefer.

    Add a drizzle of EVO oil on the flatbreads and make indentations with your fingers. Add the Taggiasca olives (optional) on some and leave the others plain. Finally, sprinkle a few grains of coarse salt.

  • Preheat the air fryer for 5 minutes at 340°F. Place the flatbreads directly in the basket without parchment paper and cook at 340°F for 10 minutes. It won’t be necessary to turn them over, but if needed, you can extend the time by 2-3 minutes for the bottom side. Mine cooked correctly on the bottom as well, becoming slightly golden.

    Alternatively, you can bake them in a hot oven at 355°F for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.

    They are excellent both hot and cold, or accompanied by cold cuts and cheese. Enjoy your meal!

Tips for you

You can use the size of the pastry cutter you prefer, bearing in mind that if it’s very large, it will require more cooking time.

✔ For this recipe, it is necessary to cook the flatbreads directly in the air fryer basket without trays or parchment paper: this way, they will cook thanks to the air that passes 360 degrees from bottom to top, allowing for ideal air frying. Trays or parchment paper in this case would be an obstacle as they would block the air circulating inside the air fryer.

✔ The oil sprayer I used is available for sale in supermarkets. I recommend one of these because their spray is really fine and controlled, and they are also really excellent. You can find some by clicking here. Alternatively, you can buy the spray bottle that you can fill yourself with the oil of your choice. Here’s the link to a great sprayer here.

✔ I recommend using the BBQ mesh to place directly in the non-stick basket of your air fryer: the mesh protects the non-stick coating of the basket (which will remain like new) and allows the food to cook uniformly, letting the air pass 360 degrees. You can find it on Amazon by clicking here.

✔ Alternatively, you can use the perforated parchment paper, which allows the air to pass from bottom to top. You can find it on Amazon by clicking here: link.

✔ For this recipe, I used the COSORI 4.7 air fryer, which you can find on Amazon here.
