For the Pizza Rolls
- 1 package pizza dough (store-bought or homemade, about 1 lb)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup pepperoni slices
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Pinch of salt
- Olive oil for spraying
For Dipping
- Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a clean surface into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick. If needed, lightly flour the surface to prevent sticking.
- Assemble Pizza Rolls: Sprinkle the Italian seasoning and a pinch of salt evenly over the dough. Layer the shredded mozzarella and pepperoni slices evenly on top of the dough, leaving about 1 inch at the edges free.
- Roll and Slice: Starting at one edge, carefully roll the dough tightly into a log shape. Use a sharp knife to slice the roll into 1 to 1.5 inch thick pieces to form individual pizza rolls.
- Prepare for Air Frying: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil to prevent sticking. Arrange the pizza rolls in the basket in a single layer, leaving some space between each piece.
- Air Fry the Rolls: Spray the tops of the pizza rolls lightly with olive oil. Set the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and cook the rolls for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted inside.
- Serve: Remove the pizza rolls carefully from the air fryer. Serve warm with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add finely chopped fresh basil or oregano to the cheese mixture.
- Ensure the pizza rolls are spaced apart in the air fryer to allow even cooking and crispiness.
- If your air fryer is small, cook the rolls in batches to avoid overcrowding.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for a few minutes to retain crispness.
