Description
These Easy Air Fryer Pizza Rolls are a quick and delicious snack or appetizer made with a simple dough of self-rising flour and Greek yogurt, filled with classic pizza sauce and mozzarella cheese. Ready in just 15 minutes, they are perfectly crispy on the outside and cheesy on the inside thanks to air frying.
Ingredients
Dough
- 1 3/4 cups self-rising flour
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
Filling
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
For Cooking
- milk or olive oil, for brushing
Instructions
- Make the dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt. Mix until a smooth dough forms. Adjust the consistency by adding extra yogurt if too thick or additional flour if too thin.
- Roll out the dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and roll it into a 12-inch by 9-inch rectangle about half an inch thick using a rolling pin.
- Add sauce and cheese: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and optional pizza toppings over the sauce.
- Roll and slice: Roll the dough jelly roll style, starting from one long edge. Use a wet knife to slice the roll into 8 equal portions.
- Prepare for air frying: Lightly grease the air fryer basket. Brush the tops of the pizza rolls with milk or olive oil for browning.
- Air fry: Place the pizza rolls in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry at 200°C (400°F) for 8-10 minutes, turning halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- Serve: Remove the pizza rolls once golden brown and crispy. Serve them immediately while hot and melty.
Notes
- You can customize the filling by adding pepperoni, cooked sausage, vegetables, or herbs before rolling.
- If you prefer a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based alternative and use vegan cheese.
- Ensure the pizza rolls are spaced apart in the air fryer basket to allow even airflow and crisping.
- Use a wet knife to slice the roll to prevent dough from sticking and tearing.
