20-Minute Air Fryer Calzones Recipe
My recipe for crispy air fryer calzones come together in only a few minutes, using pre-made pizza dough (either homemade or store-bought!). Ready in 20 minutes and customizable with whatever fillings you choose, calzones are my go-to choice for a quick dinner, or a grab and go snack!
Equipment
- 1 Air Fryer
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 lb Pizza dough homemade or storebought
- All-purpose flour for working with the dough
- ½ cup Pizza sauce
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella
- Toppings of your choice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Instructions
- Divide the dough into 8 equally sized pieces.
- Working with 1 piece at a time, roll pizza dough into a 6-inch circle to the thickness of ~⅛ inch.
- Spread 1-2 tablespoon of pizza sauce on one half of the circle, leaving a 1-inch border.
- Add ~3 tablespoon cheese and ~2 tablespoon various toppings to each calzone.
- Fold the clean side of the dough up and over the filled side.
- Gently twist and pinch the edges together to seal the calzone. Use a knife to cut 2-3 vents in the top.
- Brush olive oil on the basket of the air fryer AND the top of the calzone.
- Place 1-2 calzones in the air fryer and bake at 370˚F for 9 minutes (check at 7 minutes since all air fryers will bake slightly differently).
Notes
If you’re making pizza dough from scratch, add 1 hour to the prep time for the recipe. If using refrigerated pizza dough, allow it to come to room temperature before rolling. All meats used must be cooked before baking in air fryer. Oven Baking Instructions: Bake on a baking sheet at 435˚F for 15-20 minutes.
