Ingredients

Scale

For the Dough and Filling

  • Pizza dough (store-bought or homemade) – enough for several 3×3 inch squares
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup pepperoni slices
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Pinch of salt

For Cooking and Serving

  • Olive oil (for spraying)
  • Marinara sauce (for dipping) – as desired

Instructions

  1. Gather Ingredients: Collect all necessary ingredients including pizza dough, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, Italian seasoning, salt, olive oil, and marinara sauce.
  2. Prepare Dough: If using store-bought dough, let it sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes to make rolling easier. If using homemade dough, roll it out evenly on a floured surface until you have a smooth sheet approximately 1/8 inch thick.
  3. Cut Dough Squares: Cut the rolled-out dough into 3×3 inch squares using a sharp knife or pizza cutter to ensure uniform size for even cooking.
  4. Fill Rolls: Place a small amount of shredded mozzarella, a few pepperoni slices, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt in the center of each dough square to create the filling.
  5. Seal the Rolls: Fold each dough square over the filling to form a pocket and crimp the edges firmly with your fingers or a fork to prevent the filling from oozing out during cooking.
  6. Preheat Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat for 5 minutes to ensure even cooking.
  7. Arrange Rolls: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil to prevent sticking, then place the pizza rolls in a single layer without overlapping.
  8. Cook: Air fry the pizza rolls for 8-10 minutes, shaking or flipping the basket halfway through cooking to ensure they crisp evenly on all sides.
  9. Cool and Serve: Once cooked to a golden brown, remove the rolls and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • You can customize the fillings by adding vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms for a veggie twist.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure crispiness.
  • If you prefer extra crispy rolls, add an additional 1-2 minutes of cook time, watching carefully to avoid burning.
  • Store leftover rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat in the air fryer for best results.
