Pizza Rolls Ingredients

  • Pizza dough (store-bought or homemade) – enough to cut into 3×3 inch squares
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup pepperoni slices
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Pinch of salt
  • Olive oil (for spraying)
  • Marinara sauce (for dipping)

Instructions

  1. Gather Ingredients: Collect all the necessary ingredients including pizza dough, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni slices, Italian seasoning, salt, olive oil, and marinara sauce.
  2. Prepare Dough: Let store-bought dough come to room temperature for about 20 minutes or roll out homemade dough into a flat surface.
  3. Cut Dough: Cut the rolled-out dough into 3×3 inch squares to form the base for each pizza roll.
  4. Add Fillings: Place shredded mozzarella cheese, pepperoni slices, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt in the center of each dough square.
  5. Seal Rolls: Fold the dough over the filling to form a roll and crimp the edges tightly to seal the filling inside.
  6. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes to ensure even cooking.
  7. Prepare Air Fryer Basket: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil to prevent sticking and arrange the rolls in a single layer without overcrowding.
  8. Air Fry: Cook the pizza rolls for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even browning and crispiness.
  9. Cool and Serve: Allow the pizza rolls to cool slightly before serving them warm with marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • Make sure the edges of the dough are well sealed to prevent cheese from leaking out during cooking.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to allow hot air circulation for even cooking.
  • You can customize fillings with other ingredients like cooked sausage, vegetables or different cheeses.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the air fryer for best crispness.
