Ingredients
Scale
Pizza Rolls
- 2 – 4 whole wheat tortillas (can also use flour tortillas, each tortilla makes 4 pizza rolls)
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup marinara or pizza sauce
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Warm Tortillas: Using a microwave-safe plate, microwave wraps for 30 seconds to make them pliable for rolling.
- Spread Sauce: Lay the warmed tortilla flat and spread a thin, even layer of marinara sauce over the surface using a spoon.
- Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella evenly on top of the marinara sauce.
- Season: Evenly sprinkle dried oregano, basil, and garlic powder over the cheese layer.
- Roll Sides: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward to start forming the roll.
- Roll Tortilla: Roll the tortilla tightly in from the top and bottom to enclose the fillings securely.
- Air Fry: Place the rolled tortillas seam side down in the air fryer basket. Air fry at 400 degrees for 6 minutes or until crispy and golden brown. Remove and slice each roll into 4 equal pieces.
- Serve: Serve the pizza rolls warm with extra marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
Notes
- Use a serrated knife when slicing the pizza rolls to prevent flattening them and maintain their shape.
- Allow pizza rolls to cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze in a sealed bag for up to 3 months.
- Reheat pizza rolls by microwaving for 20 seconds or air frying at 350 degrees for 2 to 3 minutes to restore crispiness.
- These pizza rolls are a fun, easy recipe that kids can help with, especially spreading sauce and adding cheese.
