Ingredients
- 1 tube refrigerated crescent rolls
- 24 slices pepperoni
- 4 string cheese sticks
- ¼ cup melted butter
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- Fresh minced parsley (for garnish)
- Pizza sauce (for dipping)
Instructions
- Prepare the dough: Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into the pre-cut triangle shapes.
- Add fillings: Arrange 3 slices of pepperoni along the widest end of each crescent triangle.
- Add cheese: Slice each string cheese stick in half and place one half on top of the pepperoni on each dough triangle.
- Roll and seal: Fold the ends of the dough in and then roll up the dough completely to seal in the cheese and pepperoni. Repeat with all dough triangles.
- Make garlic butter: In a small bowl, stir together melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
- Brush dough: Brush the garlic butter mixture over all sides of each crescent roll.
- Air fry: Place the prepared crescent rolls in an even layer in the air fryer basket. Work in batches if needed depending on basket size. Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 6-7 minutes or until golden brown and fully cooked.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle freshly minced parsley over the hot crescent rolls and serve immediately with warm pizza sauce for dipping.
Notes
- You can use any type of string cheese or mozzarella cheese if preferred.
- Make sure to seal the dough well to prevent cheese from leaking during cooking.
- Cooking times may vary depending on the air fryer model; check for golden brown color and cooked dough.
- For a spicier version, add crushed red pepper flakes to the garlic butter mixture.
- Best served hot for a melty cheese experience.
