Instructions
- Stretch the pizza dough into a large rectangle. Cut the dough into nine equal rectangle pieces.
- Place a tablespoon of the cheese in the center of each piece of dough. Top the cheese with four slices of pepperoni.
- Roll the dough the long way tightly. Pinch the ends of the dough with your fingers until closed and well sealed.
- In a small bowl, combine melted butter, garlic, and salt.
For The Oven
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Transfer all of the pizza rolls onto a cookie sheet lightly sprayed with cooking spray or lined with parchment paper. Place the pepperoni rolls on the tray so they aren't touching.
- Brush the tops of the rolls with butter using a silicone brush. Bake pizza rolls for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
For The Air Fryer
- Brush the butter over the top of the rolls with a silicone brush. Place a few of the rolls into the basket of your air fryer, this can vary depending on how big your air fryer is. The rolls should not be touching each other.
- Air fry at 350°F for 8-9 minutes or until golden brown. Bake any remaining rolls in batches.
Notes
- Air frying circulates the hot air more around the machine which is the technology that makes things crispier and bake faster. We need a slightly lower temperature in the air fryer so the pizza rolls don't burn.
- I have found that Air fryers can vary a little in temperature from machine to machine. I suggest keeping an eye on your pizza rolls and start checking them at 6-7 minutes for doneness.
- Pizza dough or homemade pizza dough can be used for this recipe. Crescent roll dough or even dough meant for rolls can also be used.
- If using storebought pizza dough that is not in a tube let it come to room temperature on the counter for at least 20-30 minutes before trying to roll the dough. Cold pizza dough doesn't stretch as easily and will be difficult to roll into a sheet.
- You could also top with an egg wash if you prefer which is especially great for when you are serving them cold, but I find the melted butter is a little tastier.
