How to Make Parmesan Garlic Pizza Rolls
- Air Fry the Pizza Rolls: Cook the frozen pizza rolls in your air fryer at 390°F for 15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. They should be golden brown and crispy.
- Coat with Garlic Parmesan Sauce: Transfer the hot pizza rolls to a large mixing bowl. Pour the garlic parmesan sauce over the top. Add the freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Toss until every pizza roll is coated.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately. Don’t forget extra garlic parmesan sauce for dipping!

What to Serve with Parmesan Garlic Pizza Rolls

For a fun game day spread, serve these alongside my Creamy Dill Pickle Dip, an easy charcuterie board, and your favorite Air Fryer Ranch Chicken Wings.
Fun Pizza Role Variations
Once you make these, you’ll want to try different versions!!
Buffalo Pizza Rolls
Swap the garlic parmesan sauce for buffalo sauce and serve with ranch.
Spicy Garlic
Add crushed red pepper flakes before tossing.
Extra Cheesy
Mix in shredded mozzarella with the Parmesan.
Italian Style
Sprinkle with Italian seasoning before serving.
Storage
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat in the air fryer for 3–5 minutes at 350°F to crisp them back up. The microwave works too, but they won’t stay quite as crispy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I bake these instead of using an air fryer?
Absolutely! Bake the pizza rolls according to the package directions, then toss them with the sauce and Parmesan.
What garlic parmesan sauce should I use?
I usually use either Walmart’s Garlic Parmesan Sauce or Buffalo Wild Wings Garlic Parmesan Sauce. Both taste great.
Can I use pre-packaged Parmesan cheese?
You can, but freshly grated Parmesan melts better and has much more flavor.
What kind of pizza rolls work best?
Any variety works! Pepperoni, cheese, supreme, combination, or even the mini versions all taste great.
Can I make these ahead?
They’re definitely best served fresh while they’re crispy. If needed, you can cook the pizza rolls ahead of time and quickly reheat them in the air fryer before tossing them with the sauce.
Sometimes the easiest recipes are the ones everyone talks about the most. These easy Parmesan garlic pizza rolls take a freezer staple and turn it into a cheesy, garlicky appetizer that’s perfect for everything from movie nights to football parties.
