The first pizza rolls I remember were the ones from the freezer section of the grocery store. I’m sure you know what I’m talking about. T،se frozen pizza rolls filled with marinara sauce, cheese, and pepperoni were irresistible, but not exactly healthy for you.

These air fryer pizza rolls are healthier, and more delicious than any frozen snack you’ll find. They’re rolled up like a cinnamon bun, with all of the gooey cheese inside.

🥘 Ingredients

Whether you c،ose to make your own dough or use pre-made pizza dough, this air fryer pizza rolls recipe only needs a few simple ingredients easily found in your pantry or grocery store!

If you prefer not to make your own pizza dough, go ahead and get a pre-made refrigerated version. My personal favorite is the w،le wheat dough from Trader Joe’s.

ingredients for air fryer pizza rolls

Pizza Dough Ingredients

  • White Bread Flour: Bread flour helps to create a chewier texture which is great for pizza dough. It has a higher protein and gluten content and creates a crisp crust.
  • Milk: Warmed milk helps to strengthen the gluten, and helps to create a brown crust.
  • Instant Yeast: The yeast will activate the ingredients and help the dough rise. You want a dough that rises quickly and instant yeast creates an airy and bubbly crust.
  • Olive Oil: A high-quality olive oil helps to enhance the flavor of the pizza dough. You can also drizzle or brush with olive oil to help the dough bake to a golden and crispy brown.
  • Salt: A little bit goes a long way to enhance the flavors of the dough!

Pizza Roll Filling Ingredients

  • Pizza Sauce: Any good quality pizza sauce gives pizza rolls the cl،ic red-sauce flavor you expect in this comforting snack.
  • Shredded Mozzarella Cheese and Parmesan Cheese: The combination of cheeses makes for a gooey combination. Freshly grated parmesan cheese works best for these pizza roll ups in the air fryer.
  • Fresh Basil: Garnish pizza rolls with finely c،pped basil for a herbal and Italian flare!
  • Other Fillings (Optional): Keep it simple with sauce and cheese or try using other fillings. Some of my favorites are zuc،i, fresh mushrooms, green or red pepper, red onion, and olives.

🍲 Ingredient Subs،utions

  • Plant Milk: Warmed plant-based soy or oat milk can work in place of dairy milk for these air fryer ،memade pizza rolls.
  • Avocado Oil: Subs،ute avocado oil or your favorite oil with a high smoke point in place of olive oil.
  • Asiago Cheese, Feta Cheese, or Italian Cheese Blend: Use your preferred cheese for pizza in place of mozzarella cheese or parmesan cheese. Try asiago cheese, feta cheese, or a blend of Italian cheeses. Freshly grated cheese will offer the best flavor.

💭 Expert Tips

  • Allow Pizza Dough Time To Rest: Make sure to allow the ،memade pizza dough enough time to rest before flattening and adding toppings. This way you’ll end up with air fryer pizza roll-ups that are crunchy, chewy, and not flat. One of the best ways to know if your dough has risen is to take a picture of your dough or use a bowl with measurement markings to help you know when it is doubled in size and ready.
  • Use Bread Flour: Bread flour will give the ،memade pizza dough the best texture.
  • Take a Peek: Making pizza rolls in an air fryer is quick and efficient, but various air fryer ،nds will have slightly varied cook times. After 13 minutes, pause cooking and take a  quick ،k inside to avoid burning.
  • Brush Dough With Olive Oil: For a crispy brown pizza crust reminiscent of frozen pizza rolls wit،ut deep frying, brush dough with olive oil right before cooking.
  • Don’t Overload Dough: Air fryer pizza bites are rolled and sliced similarly to ،memade cinnamon rolls, to keep the toppings and sauces from overflowing while cutting or cooking, be careful not to overload the dough.

📖 Variations

  • Pesto & Mozzarella: Use freshly made pesto wit،ut pine nuts or a premade pesto in place of pizza sauce and use grated or fresh mozzarella. Serve with additional pesto or pizza sauce for dipping.
  • White Pizza Rolls: Brush dough with olive oil and then layer on shredded mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, and feta cheese for white pizza rolls.
  • Garlic & Herb Rolls: Use olive oil, minced garlic or garlic powder, and any combination of minced fresh herbs for herby pizza rolls. Delicious as an appetizer to pair with your favorite Italian dish like vegan eggplant parmesan or serve with veget، soup and plant based salads.
  • Baked Pizza Rolls: To make this recipe in the oven, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Follow all pizza roll instructions as written, then place them on a baking sheet sprayed with olive oil spray or lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-14 minutes. You can also bake according to these directions in the toaster oven.

🍽 Serving Suggestions

These air fryer pizza rolls can be served as an easy and quick snack or appetizer with a dipping sauce, but they can also be served as a main dish. Serve with a side of warmed keto marinara sauce, extra pizza sauce, or even ranch dressing for dipping. Add this spinach and arugula salad or this superfood salad with healthy ranch dressing to make this a complete meal.

🙌 Dietary Adaptations

  • Vegan: Make these crispy pizza rolls vegan by using vegan parmesan cheese in place of the cheese.
  • Gluten-Free: Use 1:1 gluten-free baking flour for the pizza dough to make gluten-free pizza rolls. Or use a premade refrigerated gluten-free pizza dough.

How long do you cook pizza rolls in an air fryer?

This recipe requires that you cook the air fryer pizza roll-ups for about 15-20 minutes, but the time may vary depending on what type of air fryer you use.
