4.6 from 63 reviews

These Air Fryer Pizza Rolls are a quick and delicious homemade snack, featuring a soft, flaky dough filled with zesty pizza sauce and gooey mozzarella cheese. Made with just a few simple ingredients and cooked in the air fryer, they offer a healthier twist on traditional pizza rolls with a crispy outside and melty inside.

Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 1 3/4 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt

Filling

  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Make the dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt. Mix thoroughly until a smooth dough forms. If the dough feels too thick, add a little more yogurt; if too thin, sprinkle in more flour until the right consistency is reached.
  2. Roll out the dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface. Using a rolling pin, gently roll it into a rectangle approximately 12 inches by 9 inches, about half an inch thick.
  3. Add toppings: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce along with any other desired pizza toppings.
  4. Shape the rolls: Starting at one short end, carefully roll the dough jelly-roll style into a tight log. Use a wet knife to slice the log into 8 equal portions.
  5. Prepare for air frying: Lightly grease the air fryer basket. Brush the outside of each pizza roll with milk or olive oil to encourage browning and crispiness.
  6. Air fry: Place the pizza rolls cut side up in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Air fry at 200°C (400°F) for 8-10 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
  7. Serve: Remove the pizza rolls from the basket once golden and cooked through. Serve immediately while hot and melty.

Notes

  • You can customize the filling with your favorite pizza toppings such as pepperoni, bell peppers, mushrooms, or olives.
  • If self-rising flour is unavailable, make your own by combining 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour with 2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • For a dairy-free option, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt and use vegan cheese.
  • Brush the rolls with olive oil for a crispier crust or milk for a softer exterior.
  • Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket to allow even cooking.
  • Check halfway through cooking and adjust time slightly based on the size of your air fryer and personal crispness preference.
