Air Fryer Pizza Crescent Rolls

These air fryer pizza crescent rolls are a quick, kid-friendly meal or snack with crispy outsides and plenty of cheesy pizza flavor. Let everyone choose their own fillings for an easy family pizza night.

A QUICK NOTE

Avoid overfilling the rolls so they stay closed while cooking. If you add sausage, peppers, or other vegetables, cook and cool them first. Air fryers vary, so begin checking the rolls a minute or two early.

COOK TIME

About 8 minutes

INGREDIENTS

• 2 packages crescent roll dough (reduced-fat works well)

• About 1 cup pizza sauce

• 1 package pepperoni, or as desired

• About 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, plus more for topping

• Olive oil spray

OPTIONAL FILLINGS

• Cooked sausage

• Cooked bell peppers

• Other cooked pizza toppings of choice

DIRECTIONS

1. Carefully unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles.

2. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over each triangle. Add pepperoni or other cooked fillings to the wide end, then sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.

3. Roll each crescent from the wide end toward the point. Press the point gently into the dough to help seal it, and tuck in the sides if needed.

4. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil. Arrange the rolls in a single layer with space between them, working in batches if needed.

5. Lightly spray the tops with olive oil and sprinkle with a little extra mozzarella, if desired.

6. Air fry at 360°F for about 8 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Begin checking early, since air fryer models vary.

7. Let cool briefly before serving. Pair with eggs for extra protein, or serve with warm pizza sauce or cheese dip.
