Regular slice: Place directly on basket. Check at 3 minutes.
Thick crust pizza: Extra time for dough to heat through.
Thin crust pizza: Watch closely — thin crust reheats very fast.
Multiple slices: Don't stack slices. Lay flat in single layer.
Tips for best results
Lower temp (350°F) prevents cheese from burning before crust crisps
No need to preheat for reheating
Don't use foil — it prevents the crust from crisping on the bottom
Leftover pizza reheated this way is genuinely as good as fresh

No — lay them flat in a single layer or they won't heat evenly.
