Pro Tips for the Best Pepperoni Rolls

🔥 Don’t overcrowd the air fryer – Cook in batches if needed.
🧀 Use block cheese – Pre-shredded cheese has anti-caking agents that don’t melt as smoothly.
🌶️ Spice it up – Add jalapeños or a dash of crushed red pepper.
📦 Storage – Keep leftovers in the fridge for 3 days and reheat in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes.
