Ditch the store-bought frozen snacks and make your own homemade pizza rolls at home! Baked, not fried, these air fryer pizza rolls are ready in only 8 minutes and can be frozen for a quick snack.
Add ~1 tsp pizza sauce, ~2 tbsp mozzarella, and ~1 tsp of additional toppings to the bottom third of the egg roll wrapper.
1/3 cup pizza sauce, 2 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella, additional toppings of your choice, 20 egg roll wrappers
Assemble the rolls (see the step-by-step photos in the post). Brush olive oil over the top of the egg rolls.
2 tsp olive oil
Brush olive oil on the basket of the air fryer. Place the egg rolls in the basket, seam side down, without letting them touch each other.
2 tsp olive oil
Bake at 360F for 6 minutes. Flip and bake for an additional 2 minutes.
Notes
All meats must be cooked before being put into the air fryer.
You can use no oil if desired. They won't be as crispy but they'll still be tasty.
To freeze: place uncooked egg rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and freeze. Then transfer to a freezer-proof bag or container. Do not thaw before cooking.
Skillet Instructions
Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Then add enough olive or avocado oil to cover the bottom of the skillet. Place the egg roll "seam side" down in the oil.
Cook it until that side is crispy and brown, and then flip. When finished cooking, place them on a plate lined with newspaper or paper towels to absorb the extra oil.
Baking Instructions
Place a baking rack on a foil-lined baking sheet. Liberally spray the rack with olive oil.
Put the egg rolls seam side down on the baking rack and brush olive oil over the top.
Bake at 325 F for 12 minutes, and flip. Bake for an additional 8-12 minutes or until the egg rolls are nice and crispy without being burned.
