Ingredients:
- Low-carb flour tortillas (as many as you need)

- 1–2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- Pepperoni slices
- Italian seasoning (oregano, basil, garlic powder) – optional
- Olive oil or melted butter (for brushing)
Directions:
1. Preheat Your Oven or Air Fryer
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C), or your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for that ultra-crispy finish.
2. Assemble the Roll-Ups
Lay each tortilla flat. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over the surface, leaving the edges clean. Sprinkle generously with mozzarella, then add a layer of pepperoni slices.
3. Roll & Secure
Roll each tortilla tightly into a log. Place seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet or air fryer basket.
4. Add Flavor & Bake
Brush the tops with olive oil or melted butter, and sprinkle with a pinch of Italian seasoning.
- Oven: Bake for 10–12 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Air Fryer: Cook for 6–8 minutes, checking halfway through for crispness.
5. Serve & Enjoy
Let them cool slightly before slicing. Serve with extra pizza sauce, ranch dressing, or garlic dip. Or just enjoy them as they are — cheesy, crispy, and irresistible!
Pro Tips:
