Instructions
- Begin by preheating your air fryer to 200°C (400°F).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out your pizza dough into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick. If using crescent roll dough, simply unroll it and press the seams together to form a rectangle.
- Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the cheese on top, followed by your choice of toppings.
- Starting from one of the long sides, carefully roll the dough into a tight log, keeping the filling inside as you roll.
- Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, slice the log into bite-sized pieces, about 2 inches thick.
- Lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray or oil to prevent sticking.
- Place the pizza rolls in the air fryer basket in a single layer, leaving some space between them for air circulation. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Once cooked, remove the rolls from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve them warm with extra pizza sauce or your favorite dipping sauce on the side.
