Put the frozen pizza rolls in an even layer inside your air fryer. You can put them slightly closer together, but they might need just a little more time to cook up!
Do I need to spray the basket or use parchment paper in?
We cooked the rolls on an air fryer, and they didn’t stick or burn. We wouldn’t advise spraying them with cooking spray as it might affect flavor- just use a pastry brush to apply light layer of olive oil if you don’t have nonstick basket available! You can also preheat your appliance before starting this recipe if needed (I did not do so).
Conclusion:
Air frying pizza rolls is a great way to make this classic snack. By following the cooking time and temperature recommendations in this recipe, you can create a crispy outside and soft inside for your pizza rolls. Serve them with marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping and enjoy!
