Ingredients:

  • 1 lb pizza dough
  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella
  • 3 oz thinly sliced beef pepperoni
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp finely grated parmesan cheese

Instructions:

  1. On a lightly floured surface, roll the 1 lb pizza dough into a large rectangle.
  2. Spread a thin layer of 1/2 cup marinara sauce over the dough, then evenly top with 1 cup shredded mozzarella and 3 oz beef pepperoni.
  3. Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into 1-inch pieces.
  4. Preheat the air fryer to 390°F (200°C).
  5. Lightly brush the exterior of the sliced rolls with 1 tbsp olive oil.
  6. Arrange the rolls in the air fryer basket in a single layer; cook in batches if they don't fit in one layer to ensure air circulation.
  7. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes until the crust is deep golden-brown and firm.
  8. While the rolls cook, melt 2 tbsp unsalted butter and stir in 1/2 tsp garlic powder and 1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese in a small bowl.
  9. Immediately toss the hot rolls in the garlic butter mixture to glaze.
