Quick and Tasty Air Fryer Pizza Roll Ups

Recipe Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Pizza Roll Ups

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean surface and separate into triangles along the perforated lines.
  3. Spread about 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce onto each triangle, leaving a small border around the edges.
  4. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce. Add grated Parmesan cheese on top.
  5. Sprinkle dried oregano, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes (if using) over the cheese.

Step 2: Roll and Cut the Roll Ups

  1. Starting from the wider end of each triangle, roll it up towards the pointed end, enclosing the cheese and sauce inside.
  2. Once rolled, pinch the edges slightly to seal.
  3. Using a knife or pizza cutter, slice each rolled triangle into 2 or 3 smaller pieces, depending on your preferred size.

Step 3: Air Fry the Pizza Roll Ups

  1. Lightly brush or spray the air fryer basket with olive oil or cooking spray.
  2. Arrange the Pizza Roll Ups in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching each other.
  3. Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 6-8 minutes, or until the roll ups are golden brown and crispy.
  4. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook them in batches.

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy!

  1. Remove the Pizza Roll Ups from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.
  2. Serve warm with extra pizza sauce for dipping, if desired.

Tips and Tricks

  • Variations: Feel free to add your favorite pizza toppings such as pepperoni, bell peppers, or mushrooms before rolling up the dough.
  • Sealing the Edges: Ensure the edges of the crescent roll dough are sealed tightly to prevent the filling from leaking during cooking.
  • Air Fryer Timing: Cooking time may vary depending on the brand and model of your air fryer. Adjust accordingly to achieve desired crispiness.
