Tips for making the best pizza crescent rolls:
- For this recipe, I used store-bought crescent roll dough, but you could use pizza dough instead if preferred.
- If you have shredded cheese instead of sticks, feel free to use that instead.
- Can I make pizza crescents in the air fryer?! Yes, great idea. Try cooking these at 300 degrees for 6 minutes, turn and cook another 4-5 minutes, according to Pillsbury.com.
- Make a turkey and cheese version of these rolls by using the same crescent dough, deli turkey, and cheddar cheese!
- Need a crowd-pleasing appetizer for a larger group? Double or triple the recipe to serve at your next party. This is a delicious game-day snack!

“I love these. When we do movie nights with the kids, I like to whip up a snack plate with easy finger foods. I’ve done these before as a quick and easy addition. You can even add a drizzle of basil pesto inside which is super yummy too!” – Hip2Save team member, Nicole
“These are also a favorite in our house! They are such an easy snack or meal and my kids can make them themselves! We like to sprinkle a little Italian seasoning inside and top with garlic butter! Delicious!” – Hip2Save team member, Liz
