- Slice each bagel in half horizontally.
- Spread bagel halves with a thin layer of the tomato sauce.

Notes
Topping suggestions: pepperoni (cut into quarters), sliced olives, bell peppers, ham, pineapple, mushrooms, onion, bacon, crumbled sausage
To cook pizza bagels in an air fryer: Cook at 330°F for 4-6 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and toppings are cooked to your liking. Air fryer times and temperatures vary, so feel free to adjust the time or temperature up or down a little to whatever fits your particular model best. For my air fryer, 5 minutes at 330°F works perfectly for frozen pizza bagels - no need to preheat!
