Air Fryer Pizza Rolls

Course Snack
Cuisine American
Keyword air fryer, pizza rolls
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Servings 25 rolls

Ingredients

  • 25 wonton wrappers
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 3/4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan or Pecorino Romano
  • extra pizza toppings (see notes)
  • 1 egg beaten with a splash of water

Instructions

  • Spray the basket of your air fryer with olive oil. Sey aside.
  • I recommend assembling one test pizza roll and seeing if you can roll it up properly before assembling several at a time.
  • Lay out a wonton wrapper and fill with a teaspoon of marinara.
  • Add about 2 teaspoons of mozzarella.
  • Add extra pizza toppings, if desired.
  • Lightly brush the perimeter of the wonton with water.
  • Fold two opposite corners into the center of the wrapper.
  • Fold the remaining corners over the first two. This will create a rectangular shape and the filling will be totally enclosed.
  • Place the rolls into the greased basket, seam side down. Be careful to not overcrowd the basket.
  • Brush the rolls with the beaten egg.
  • Cook at 400F for 8-10 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and it looks like they're about to start oozing.
  • Remove from the basket. Let them sit for about 5 minutes so you don't burn your tongue!
  • They should be enjoyed immediately. Serve warm with marinara sauce.
  • They can be kept warm in a 250 °F (121 °C) oven for up to 30 minutes. You can also freeze the prepared, uncooked pizza rolls and cook for a few more minutes.

How to freeze them:

  • Follow the above directions, minus the egg wash, and add them to a lined baking sheet that will fit in your freezer.
  • Place the rolls on the sheet leaving space in between for an hour or two in the freezer. Once frozen, you can transfer them to a resealable freezer bag and store them for several months.
  • Then just brush the frozen pizza rolls with egg wash or olive oil, and pop as many as you’ll eat in the air fryer and enjoy.

How to make frozen pizza rolls in the air fryer:

  • You don't need to use oil or an egg wash. Just place them evenly and unstacked in the air fryer basket.
  • There's no need to preheat the air fryer. Do not defrost the pizza rolls.
  • Cook mini frozen pizza rolls for 5-7 minutes (flipping the rolls after 3 minutes) at 380 °F (193 °C). Cook the regular pizza rolls for 6-9 minutes (flipping the rolls after 3 minutes) at 380 °F (193 °C).
  • Remove from the basket. Let them sit for about 5 minutes so you don't burn your tongue!

Notes

Toppings should not be watery. See the post for more details on how to cook toppings so that they don't make your pizza rolls soggy.
