Air Fryer Pizza Rolls
A quick and easy recipe for delicious pizza rolls baked right in the air fryer! Use my amazing pizza dough recipe or use store-bought dough!
Ingredients
Homemade pizza dough:
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 teaspoons pizza dough yeast
- ½ teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cups bread flour
- 1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
Pizza rolls:
- 1 batch of homemade pizza dough above or store-bought dough
- 8 oz can of pizza sauce
- pizza pepperoni
- 200 grams sliced pizza pepperoni
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
Instructions
Homemade dough:
- In the bowl of your stand mixer, 1 cup warm water, 2 teaspoons pizza dough yeast and ½ teaspoon granulated sugar. Let stand 5-10 minutes.
- Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 cups bread flour, and 1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt into the mixing bowl and mix on low speed with the dough hook until the dough comes together in a ball.
- Increase speed to medium and continue mixing in the mixer for 5-6 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, and toss it to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside to rise until doubled in size; 30-60 minutes
Air fryer pizza rolls:
- Turn out dough on a lightly floured surface and roll out into a large rectangle approximately 12 x 15 inches.
- Spread8 oz can of pizza sauce along the entire surface of the dough, then layout 200 grams sliced pizza pepperoni and sprinkle with 1 cup shredded mozzarella.
- Starting at the edge closest to you, roll the dough into a large log. When you reach the end, stretch and pull the dough over the roll and press to secure it.
- Slice the roll into the desired number of pizza rolls. I find a sharp, serrated knife works best for this, it easily cuts the dough and filling without tearing it up.
- Prepare a layer of parchment paper to fit in the basket of your air fryer. Replace basket and preheat air fryer to 300f.
- Once the air fryer has been preheated, place the parchment paper on the air fryer basket, then place the pizza rolls on the parchment paper leaving a gap in between each.
- Bake the pizza rolls in the air fryer at 300f for 17-20 minutes. I recommend checking on them at 17 minutes. Cook the rolls until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove pizza rolls from the air fryer and allow to cool slightly before serving!
Notes
Batch:
This air fryer pizza roll recipe makes 10-12 rolls, depending on how you've rolled your dough out. A thicker, smaller layer of dough will give fewer rolls. This recipe can easily be doubled, or tripled! Storage: Once cooked and cooled, your air fryer pizza rolls should be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days. They can also be placed in a freezer-friendly container or ziplock bag and frozen for up to 3 months. These pizza rolls are good cold, but even better warm - pop them back into your air fryer for 2-3 minutes to reheat before enjoying the leftovers!Variations + Substitutions
- Swap out the pepperoni for another meat, or add to it; ham + salami to make a meat lovers pizza
- Sub the homemade pizza dough for store-bought
- Add diced peppers or onions for some extra flavor
- Use alfredo sauce and chicken for a white pizza
- Make it spicy by adding red pepper flakes or dehydrated jalapenos!
