Ingredients

  • 16 small slices of pepperoni
  • 2 cans of crescent roll dough
  • 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

Instructions

  • Roll out one of the crescent dough cans and pin the seams closed.

  • Roll out the second can of crescent dough and pinch the seams closed.
  • Gently place the second sheet of crescent roll dough over the top of the first sheet.
  • Cut out each hot pocket carefully with a sharp knife.
  • Separate and pinch all the seams closed with a fork.
  • In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter.
  • Add the Italian seasoning and parmesan cheese to the butter and mix.
  • Place two hot pockets into the air fryer basket.
  • Using a basting brush, baste on the herb butter mixture.
  • Cook in the air fryer for about 6-8 minutes at 380 degrees F.
  • Repeat until all hot pockets are golden and flaky.
  • Enjoy with extra pizza sauce for dipping.
