# Expert Suggestions:
01 -
- Everything you want about pizza happens in handheld form without the floppy slice mess
- The air fryer makes the tortilla exterior impossibly crispy while the cheese gets properly melty
02 -
- Overfilling creates explosions in the air fryer so resist the urge to stuff them like tacos
- Let them rest for 2 minutes after cooking or the cheese will burn your mouth instantly
03 -
- Air fryer basket crowding creates uneven cooking so work in batches if needed
- Seam side down placement prevents unrolling during cooking
