Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Air Fryer Safe Baking Dish

Ingredients

  • 8 ounce cream cheese
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 25 slices pepperoni

Instructions

Air Fryer Instructions:

  • Preheat air fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and set the timer for 7 minutes.
  • To a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, sour cream, and seasonings. Set aside.
  • To the bottom of a 1-quart baking dish, add pepperoni slices in a single layer. Then spread the cream cheese mixture on top. Then spread the pizza sauce on top.
  • Add another layer of pepperoni slices, then add the mozzarella cheese on top. Gently press down on mozzarella cheese to make sure it stays in place.
  • Add to air fryer and cook for 7 to 10 minutes until cheese has melted and bubbly.
  • Carefully remove the pizza dip from the air fryer (be sure to use oven mitts because it will be super hot). Let cool. Then enjoy!

Oven Instructions:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • To a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, sour cream, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Then set aside.
  • Assemble the dip: To a 9 inch pie dish, add a single layer of pepperoni slices to the bottom, then spread the cream cheese mixture on top, then spread on the pizza sauce, another single layer of pepperoni slices and then top with mozzarella cheese.
  • Add the pizza dip to the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the cheese has melted and is slightly browned.
  • Remove from oven and enjoy with tortilla chips, veggies, or bread.

Slow Cooker Instructions:

  • Place all ingredients into slow cooker and place the lid on top.
  • Cook on high for 1 hour or low for 2 to 3 hours. Be sure to stir every 30 minutes.
  • Once done, turn the slow cooker on the keep warm mode.
  • Enjoy with some veggies, chips, or breadsticks.

Notes

*Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
*To reheat, preheat the air fryer to 360 degrees Fahrenheit and heat for 5 to 6 minutes until warm. Leftovers can also be reheated in the microwave using a microwave safe dish. All baking dishes should be room temperature before reheating to avoid cracking.
*Make sure that the cream cheese is soften. Cold and hard cream cheese doesn’t mix well at all. You can let the cream cheese come to room temperature or soften cream cheese by removing all the packaging and microwave it for 10 seconds at a time until soft.
*Pepperoni slices under the cheese: My air fryer tends to blow pepperoni slices around, so I recommend putting the pepperoni slices under the cheese and not on top.
*I used my Instant Vortex Plus air fryer for this recipe. Since all air fryers are different, you may need to adjust this recipe slightly for your particular air fryer.
