Description

Air Fryer Pizza Rolls are a quick, easy, and healthier snack option featuring a crispy golden exterior with gooey melted cheese and classic pizza flavors inside. Ready in under 15 minutes, these customizable rolls are perfect for game nights, busy days, or anytime you want a delicious, guilt-free treat without the hassle of deep frying.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • Pizza dough (enough to cut into 3-inch squares)
  • Pizza sauce (small spoonful per roll)
  • Shredded mozzarella cheese (per roll, as desired)
  • Pepperoni slices (2-3 per roll, optional)
  • Olive oil spray (for coating rolls)
  • Italian seasoning (sprinkle for flavor)

Optional Ingredients

  • Diced bell peppers or mushrooms (for added texture and freshness)
  • Crushed red pepper flakes (for spicy kick)
  • Pepper jack cheese (for extra heat)
  • Cheddar or parmesan cheese (to mix with mozzarella for extra cheesiness)
  • Sautéed spinach and mushrooms (vegetarian option)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the pizza dough on a clean surface and cut it into small squares approximately 3 inches each.
  2. Assemble Pizza Rolls: Place a small spoonful of pizza sauce onto each dough square. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese, a couple of pepperoni slices (or preferred filling), and a pinch of Italian seasoning. Add any optional veggies if desired. Fold the dough over to form a pocket and firmly pinch the edges to seal completely.
  3. Spray and Season: Lightly coat each sealed pizza roll with olive oil spray to ensure a crispy golden crust. Optionally sprinkle additional Italian seasoning or garlic powder on top for enhanced flavor.
  4. Air Fry: Arrange the pizza rolls in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching. Cook at 375°F for 8 to 10 minutes until the rolls are golden brown and crispy, flipping them halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  5. Cool and Serve: Carefully remove the pizza rolls from the air fryer and allow them to cool for a couple of minutes to avoid burns. Serve warm with extra pizza sauce or your favorite dipping sauces on the side.

Notes

  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; leave space between rolls for even cooking and crispiness.
  • Seal the dough edges well to prevent filling from leaking during cooking.
  • Use room temperature dough to make rolling and folding easier and improve texture.
  • Adjust cooking time as needed depending on your air fryer model to avoid burning.
  • Try different dipping sauces like ranch, marinara, garlic butter, or spicy aioli to complement the rolls.
