# Instructions:
01 -
Combine 1 1/2 cups shredded low-moisture part-skim mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup mini pepperoni slices, 1/2 cup marinara sauce, 1 tsp Italian seasoning, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp dried oregano, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional) in a medium bowl. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste. This mixture forms the delicious core of your Crispy Air Fryer Pizza Rolls: Easy Party Snack.
02 -
Lay out 18 wonton wrappers (Golden Crispy Wraps) on a clean surface. Place about 1 tablespoon of the prepared filling in the center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water, then fold two opposite corners to meet, forming a triangle. Press firmly to seal, ensuring no filling escapes.
03 -
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). While it preheats, lightly brush the assembled pizza rolls with 1 tbsp olive oil (Golden Crispy Wraps). This step is crucial for achieving the desired golden and crispy exterior for your Crispy Air Fryer Pizza Rolls: Easy Party Snack.
04 -
Arrange the brushed pizza rolls in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not overlap. You will likely need to cook them in 2-3 batches. Overcrowding will prevent them from getting perfectly crispy and evenly cooked.
05 -
Air fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until the wonton wrappers are golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Cooking time may vary slightly depending on your air fryer model and desired crispness.
06 -
Carefully remove the hot Crispy Air Fryer Pizza Rolls: Easy Party Snack from the air fryer. Immediately sprinkle with 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese and 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped, for garnish. Serve hot with 1 cup warm marinara sauce for dipping.
# Notes:
01 -
Don't Overfill: Be mindful not to overfill the wonton wrappers; about 1 tablespoon of filling is perfect. Too much filling can make sealing difficult and may cause the rolls to burst during cooking.
02 -
Batch Cooking is Key: For the crispiest results, always cook these pizza rolls in a single layer in your air fryer. Overcrowding the basket will steam them instead of crisping them.
03 -
Make Ahead & Freeze: Assemble the pizza rolls, then freeze them on a baking sheet until solid. Transfer to a freezer-safe bag and air fry from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cook time.
04 -
Flavor Variations: Get creative with your filling! Try adding finely diced bell peppers, cooked sausage, or a pinch of dried basil for different flavor profiles.
