# What You’ll Need to Make This:

01 - 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough or pizza dough

02 - 120 ml marinara or pizza sauce

03 - 100 g shredded mozzarella cheese

04 - 20–25 slices pepperoni

05 - 1 egg, beaten

06 - 1 tsp Italian seasoning (optional)

07 - 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

01 - Set air fryer to 190°C and preheat for 3 minutes.

02 - Roll out crescent or pizza dough and cut into equal squares or rectangles.

03 - On half of each dough piece, spread marinara sauce, top with mozzarella cheese, and layer with pepperoni slices.

04 - Fold over each dough piece to enclose the filling and press edges firmly using a fork to seal.

05 - Brush surface with beaten egg, then sprinkle Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese if using.

06 - Arrange pockets in a single layer in the air fryer basket, allowing space between each. Cook for 8–10 minutes or until golden and crisp.

01 - For best crispiness, avoid overfilling the pockets to ensure the edges seal properly.

02 - Parchment paper in the basket simplifies cleanup but is optional.
