1. Prepare the Dogs
- Pat hot dogs dry.
- Slice lengthwise down the middle (without cutting all the way through).
- Spoon a little pizza sauce into each slit, then sprinkle in mozzarella cheese.
2. Wrap with Dough
- Roll out the pizza dough and cut into strips.
- Wrap each hot dog with dough, covering well but leaving the ends slightly exposed.
- Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and Parmesan.
3. Air Fry to Golden Perfection
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Place the wrapped hot dogs in the basket, seam side down.
- Air fry for 8–10 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
4. Serve & Enjoy
- Let cool for a couple of minutes (they’ll be hot and cheesy!).
- Serve with extra pizza sauce for dipping.
Serving Ideas
- Classic movie night: Pair with popcorn and soda.
- Party platter: Slice into bite-sized pieces and serve with ranch, marinara, and garlic butter dips.
- Loaded version: Add pepperoni slices before wrapping for a supreme pizza dog twist.
Tips & Variations
- For extra crispiness, brush the dough with olive oil before air frying.
- Want a cheesy explosion? Use string cheese inside the hot dogs instead of shredded mozzarella.
- Make it spicy by adding crushed red pepper flakes or jalapeños.
