Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 8-oz. can crescent roll dough sheet (226g)
- 32 slices Turkey pepperoni (56g)
- 3/4 cup 2% shredded mozzarella cheese (84g)
- Pizza sauce optional for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 400 °F.
- Cut pepperoni slices into quarters and set aside.
- Lay a piece of parchment paper out on the counter top (big enough to spread the dough sheet) and stretch out the dough sheet as much you can without breaking the dough. I used a roller for this but you don't need to.
- Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut dough into 12 triangles.
- Add pepperoni to center of each triangle (about 5g each), then shredded cheese (7g each).
- Keeping the pepperoni and cheese in the dough, fold up so that they both stay secured in the dough. Then flatten out with hands to spread the puff out more.
- Spray pizza puffs on both sides with cooking spray then add to the air fryer so that none of them are touching (I had to do it in two batches). Cook for about 2 minutes or until puffs are golden brown.
- Let cool for a few minutes then serve with pizza sauce and enjoy!
Notes
To make gluten-free: use a gluten-free crescent roll mix.
To make dairy-free: use dairy-free cheese.
How to Reheat Pizza Puffs:
These pizza puffs are honestly even better the next day! Especially if you reheat them in the air fryer. Something about crescent dough reheated in the air fryer… it gets golden crispy on the outside but stays doughy in the center and the contrast is just to die for!
- Air fryer: 400F for 2-3 minutes.
- Oven: 400F for 6-7 minutes.
- Microwave: Times will vary for this. Cover with a damp paper towel and microwave for about 30 seconds or until warmed through.
