With a crisp, flaky “crust” and cheesy, saucy filling, homemade pizza rolls always hit the spot! These pizza rolls are almost like pizza pockets—crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside.
Have fun experimenting with different filling combinations! Use your favorite sauce, cheese, and toppings to create one-of-a-kind pizza rolls. I love adding diced green peppers and mini pepperoni to mine.

Becky’s Tips
- Cook these pizza rolls in batches to ensure the rolls stay crispy. If the air fryer basket is overcrowded, the pizza rolls will steam instead of fry.
- Add your favorite pizza toppings to these pizza rolls. Some ideas include mini pepperoni, cooked sausage, pineapple, chopped roasted vegetables, fresh basil, or a sprinkle of Italian seasoning or garlic powder.
- Wonton wrappers are available in the refrigerated section of most grocery stores near the tofu.

How to Store
These pizza rolls are best served immediately after cooking. Leftovers get pretty soggy! They will keep for up to 3 days in the refrigerator and can be reheated in a 375°F air fryer for 4-5 minutes.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these crispy air fryer pizza rolls alongside a tangy marinara sauce that perfectly complements their cheesy, savory filling. For a cool, creamy contrast, ranch dressing is always a crowd-pleaser. Feeling adventurous? Try dipping them in a fresh, homemade pesto for an herby twist that adds a burst of flavor with every bite.
