Air fryer pizza rolls are the ultimate snack! I have been making them for years and have learned the trick to getting them perfectly crispy. The time and cooking temperature make the biggest difference in ensuring they are crispy while preventing them from bursting. With the right air fryer settings and shaking halfway through, you get the perfect, crunchy pizza rolls every time.

My teenage son always has friends over, and one thing I can count on is them raiding the pantry the second they walk through the door. One of their all-time favorite snacks – air fryer pizza rolls.

I love these pizza bites just as much as they do. They are fast, easy to make, and of course have great pizza flavor. The boys can pop the pizza rolls in the air fryer and they are done in under 10 minutes, easy peasy. They turn out nice and crunchy, not soggy like the microwave.
