Scale
Pizza Rolls:
- 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (regular or dairy free)
- 3/4 cup prepared pizza sauce
- 1/4 cup diced green bell pepper
- 1/2 cup diced mushrooms
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 5 slices lean back bacon (swap for a vegetable of choice for vegetarian)
- 6–8 egg roll wrappers
Instructions
- Dice the green pepper and mushrooms and set aside.
- In a small pan, fry the back bacon until browned then remove and chop into small pieces.
- In the same frying pan, with some oil, sauté the mushrooms for a few minutes until soft.
- Add the mushrooms, diced bacon, green pepper, shredded cheese, and pizza sauce into a large mixing bowl and stir until well combined.
- On a clean surface brush the sides and edges of an egg roll wrapper with olive oil then scoop a heaping tablespoon of the pizza mixture in the middle of the wrapper.
- Fold in both the opposite corners of the egg roll to meet in the middle over the filling, then roll up the other edge until the entire wrapper is rolled around the filling.
- Brush the exposed corner of the wrapper with oil to seal the wrapper shut and repeat the process until you have made 6-8 pizza rolls.
- Preheat the air fryer for 2 minutes at 370 degrees. Once heated, place the pizza rolls in the bottom of the air fryer basket, spacing them out evenly. Set the time for 10 minutes at 370 degrees then start.
- At the 5-minute mark remove the basket and flip the pizza rolls then fry again for 3-5 minutes, until completely crispy all around.
- Serve hot and crispy with a side of pizza sauce for dipping. Enjoy!
Notes
- Be sure you do not overfill the egg roll wrappers or they might burst in the air fryer. You should be able to roll the wrapper around the filling easily without the filling coming out the sides.
- Make sure to seal the exposed edge of the egg roll wrapper once rolled with olive oil so the wrapper does not come open in the air fryer.
