Instructions

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F.
Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal pieces and roll each one into a small circle.
Spread a spoonful of pizza sauce on half of each dough circle, leaving the edge clear.
Add your desired toppings: mozzarella, sausage or pepperoni, mushrooms, spinach, or anything you like.
Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape. Press the edges with a fork to seal.
Lightly spray the tops of the calzones with olive oil or brush with garlic butter.
Place in the air fryer basket (in batches if needed). Cook for 8–10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

Let cool slightly, then serve with extra pizza sauce for dipping.

Notes

Don’t overfill the calzones or they might burst open.
Make it vegetarian by skipping the meat and adding more veggies or plant-based sausage.
Use marinara or Alfredo sauce for a fun twist.
