Preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 5 minutes. Spray the air fryer basket with olive oil spray, or line it with a parchment liner to prevent sticking.

Remove the crust from the can and cut it in half. Shape each piece of dough into a circle, crimping the edges to form a crust. Make sure it will fit in your air fryer basket.

Carefully move one pizza crust to the air fryer basket and mist it lightly with olive oil spray. Prick the dough with a fork and precook for 3 minutes.

Spread 3 tablespoons of pizza sauce over the crust in the air fryer basket and sprinkle with 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese. Top with 7 pepperoni slices and half of the onion slices. Sprinkle with basil and red pepper flakes, if using.

Cook until the crust is golden brown and crispy and the cheese has melted, 7 to 9 minutes. Keep in mind cooking times may vary based on the brand and size of your air fryer, so check often to ensure nothing overcooks or burns. Repeat the process with the second pizza crust. Serve hot.
