Instructions
Oven Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degree
- Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and roll pizza crust into a large rectangle (about 14x9) and bake for 5 minutes.
- In a small bowl mix melted butter and garlic.
- Remove pizza crust from oven, let cool for a minute. Use a spatula to unstick crust from pan.
- Brush garlic butter over the crust. Reserve a small bit for later.
- Layer the pepperoni and cheese onto the pizza crust and sprinkle with basil and oregano.
- Gently roll the pizza crust and coat the top with reserved garlic butter.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes more or until golden brown.
- Slice and serve with warmed marinara sauce for dipping.
Air Fryer Instructions
- Cut 2 pieces of parchment paper to fit the size of your air fryer. Before unrolling pizza dough, slice it in half. Lightly spray the paper with cooking spray and roll one half of pizza crust into a rectangle on the parchment paper. Repeat with the other half of the dough on the second sheet of parchment paper.
- Place a sheet with dough into the air fryer. Bake at 400 degrees or as high as your air fryer will go for 1-2 minutes until dough is slightly baked.
- Remove pizza crust from air fryer, let cool for a minute. Use a spatula to unstick crust from parchment paper.
- In a small bowl mix melted butter and garlic.
- Brush some of the garlic butter over the crust. Reserve a small bit for later.
- Layer pepperoni and cheese onto the pizza crust and sprinkle with basil and oregano.
- Gently roll the pizza crust and coat the top with reserved garlic butter.
- Repeat with the other piece of pizza dough.
- Spray air fryer with cooking spray, place prepared pizza rolls directly into the air fryer (no parchment paper this time) and bake at 400 degrees or as high as your air fryer will go for 5 minutes. You might be able to fit both rolls into your air fryer, if not, bake one at a time.
- Check the dough to see if it's golden brown. If not ready, add 1-2 more minutes. Pizza rolls should be crispy on both sides, with a golden finish.
- Remove from air fryer, place onto a plate. Slice and serve with warmed marinara sauce for dipping.
