Ingredients

Scale

For the Pizza Rolls

  • 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)

For Serving

  • Marinara sauce (for dipping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and let the pizza dough sit at room temperature for 20 minutes if refrigerated, or roll out homemade dough on a floured surface into a thickness suitable to cut 3×3 inch squares.
  2. Cut Dough Squares: Cut the rolled-out dough into approximately 3×3 inch squares using a knife or pizza cutter to create uniform pieces for filling.
  3. Fill the Squares: Place a small handful of shredded mozzarella cheese, a few pepperoni slices, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt in the center of each dough square.
  4. Seal the Rolls: Fold each square over to enclose the filling, then crimp the edges firmly with your fingers or a fork to seal and prevent leakage during cooking.
  5. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes to ensure even cooking and a crispy finish.
  6. Prepare Air Fryer Basket: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil to prevent sticking, then arrange the sealed pizza rolls in a single layer with space between them.
  7. Cook the Pizza Rolls: Cook the rolls in the air fryer at 375°F (190°C) for 8-10 minutes. Shake or turn the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping on all sides.
  8. Cool and Serve: Remove the pizza rolls and let them cool slightly before serving warm with marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • Adjust cooking time depending on the size and thickness of your rolls to avoid burning or undercooking.
  • You can customize fillings by adding vegetables, different cheeses, or meats according to your taste.
  • Ensure the edges are sealed tightly to prevent filling leakage during air frying.
  • If you don’t own an air fryer, these can be baked in a conventional oven at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes until golden and crispy.
