    More tips for you

    1. My pizza roses are made with sliced mozzarella cheese. I also like provolone cheese which can be used with or instead of hte mozzarella for this recipe.
    2. These pizza rolls can also be air fried in air fryer safe muffin liners. Use green liners can make these roses even more fun when you go to serve them.
    3. Pizza rolls can served warm for a more 'gooey cheese' experience. Serving them with a side or sauce,such as marinara sauce, can also make these taste yummy.

    Air Fryer Pizza Rose Recipe, a simple and delicious recipe idea for turning pizza ingredients into edible flowers.

    Ingredients needed to make homemade pizza roses.

    • Refrigerated Crescent Roll Dough. This is what we will use for the crust.
    • Pizza Sauce. Any similar red sauce, such a marinara or tomato sauce, should work in this recipe.
    • Mozzarella Cheese. For best results, use square shaped slices rather than round.
    • Pepperoni Slices. I find that the standard sized pepperoni slices work better than the larger ones in this recipe.
    • Parmesan Cheese. Use freshly grated parmesan for a better tasting pizza rose.

    How to make this Air Fryer Pizza Rose Recipe.


    Step One: prepare the dough.

    Lightly dust a clean workspace with flour. Unroll the dough from the first roll on to the workspace.

    To make each of the roses, we will use two crescent roll triangles for each rose. For the first rose, start by connecting the dough triangles by pinching together perforated edges to form one large rectangle. Then use a pizza cutter to to cut the rectangle in half lengthwise.

    Step Two: make the roses.

    1. Build the pizza rose by adding about a tablespoon of sauce (resist the urge to use too much sauce as this can get messy later on).
    2. Spread the sauce evenly over the rectangle to about ½" from the edges.
    3. Top the sauce with two slices of cheese.
    4. Place a pepperoni so that half of it is one the dough and the other half is hanging off of the dough.
    5. Take the bottom of the dough and fold it up to the top of the dough rectangle. Then roll the dough from left to right to form the rose.

    Expert Tip 👉 Spread or fan the pepperoni out as you form the roses to make them look more like an actual rose.

    Step Three: air fry the pizza roses.

    Preheat your air fryer to 375. Place each of the pizza rolls in an air fryer cupcake pan or an air fryer safe cupcake cup. Air fryer for seven to eight minutes or until the roses begin to brown. Sprinkle with the parmesan cheese and serve.
