There are nights when you don’t want a full meal, but you also don’t want “just a snack.” You want something hot, crispy, cheesy, and deeply satisfying — something that feels like comfort food without the carb crash. For me, those cravings almost always come with pizza flavors attached. Pepperoni, melted mozzarella, crispy edges… the kind of food that makes you pause mid-bite because it’s exactly what you wanted.
That craving is what led to these Keto Pepperoni Mozzarella Air Fryer Wraps.
I was standing in the kitchen one afternoon, hungry but short on time, staring at low-carb wraps, shredded mozzarella, and turkey pepperoni. Ten minutes later, I pulled these out of the air fryer — golden, crispy, bubbling with cheese — and knew immediately this was going to be a repeat recipe. They hit all the right notes: crunchy outside, melty inside, bold flavor, and zero guilt.
If you love pizza flavors, quick air fryer recipes, or easy keto meals that don’t feel “diet-y,” these wraps are going to earn a permanent place in your rotation.

My Personal Experience
The first time I made these wraps, I honestly expected them to be “fine.” You know those recipes you try because they’re quick, not because you expect them to be amazing? This was one of those — until I took the first bite.
The outside was perfectly crisp, almost like a thin pizza crust. Inside, the mozzarella had melted into that stretchy, gooey layer that clings to the pepperoni. The flavor was bold and comforting, and the portion felt satisfying without being heavy.
Now, these wraps are one of my favorite keto air fryer meals. I make them when I don’t want to cook, when I’m craving pizza, or when I need something fast that still feels like real food. They’re also one of those recipes people ask for again after trying once.
Required Equipment
Air Fryer
The air fryer is what gives these wraps their crispy exterior without added oil. It cooks evenly and quickly.
Cutting Board
Useful for assembling and slicing the wraps before or after cooking.
Knife
A sharp knife helps cut the wraps cleanly for serving.
Tongs or Spatula
Makes it easier to remove the wraps from the air fryer without tearing them.
Ingredients & Substitutions
Main Ingredients
- 2 large low-carb tortillas or keto wraps
These form the base and crisp up beautifully.
Substitution: Cheese wraps or egg-based wraps. - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Provides meltiness and mild flavor.
Substitution: Part-skim mozzarella or provolone. - 12–16 slices turkey pepperoni
Adds classic pizza flavor without pork.
Substitution: Beef pepperoni or cooked chicken slices. - 1 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
Helps crisp the outside of the wrap.
Optional Seasoning
- ½ tsp Italian seasoning
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- Pinch of crushed red pepper (optional)
How to Make Keto Pepperoni Mozzarella Air Fryer Wraps
Step 1: Prepare the Wraps
Lay the low-carb tortillas flat on a clean surface. Lightly brush one side of each wrap with olive oil or melted butter. This will help them crisp up in the air fryer.
Step 2: Add the Filling
On the unbrushed side, sprinkle an even layer of mozzarella cheese, leaving a small border around the edges. Arrange the turkey pepperoni evenly over the cheese. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and garlic powder if using.
Step 3: Roll or Fold
Fold the wrap tightly into a burrito shape or roll it into a log, making sure the filling is fully enclosed. Don’t worry if it’s not perfect — the air fryer will help seal it.
Step 4: Air Fry Until Crispy
Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C). Place the wraps seam-side down in the basket. Air fry for 6–8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy.
Step 5: Rest and Serve
Remove from the air fryer and let rest for 1–2 minutes. Slice in half if desired and serve warm.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Overfilling the wrap, causing cheese leakage
- Skipping the oil, which affects crispiness
- Cooking at too high a temperature
- Removing too early before fully crisp
Pro Tips for Best Results
- Use freshly shredded cheese for better melting
- Flip halfway for even browning
- Let rest briefly so cheese sets
- Serve immediately for best texture
Keto Benefits of Mozzarella Cheese

Keto Pepperoni Mozzarella Air Fryer Wraps Recipe
Ingredients
- Low-carb tortillas – 2
- Mozzarella cheese – 1 cup
- Turkey pepperoni – 12–16 slices
- Olive oil or butter – 1 tbsp
Instructions
- Lightly brush one side of each low-carb wrap with olive oil or melted butter. Make sure the coating is even but not heavy, as this helps the wraps turn golden and crispy in the air fryer without becoming greasy. Place the wraps oil-side down on a clean surface so they’re ready for filling.
- On the unbrushed side of each wrap, sprinkle an even layer of shredded mozzarella cheese, leaving a small border around the edges. Arrange the turkey pepperoni slices evenly over the cheese so every bite gets that classic pizza flavor. If you like extra seasoning, you can sprinkle a little Italian seasoning or garlic powder at this stage.
- Starting from one edge, roll the wrap up tightly into a log or burrito shape, keeping the filling tucked in as you go. Apply gentle pressure while rolling so the wrap stays compact, but don’t worry if a little cheese peeks out — it will melt and crisp nicely during cooking.
- Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C). Place the wraps seam-side down in the air fryer basket, leaving a bit of space between them so hot air can circulate. Air fry for 6–8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wraps are deeply golden, crisp on the outside, and the cheese inside is fully melted.
- Carefully remove the wraps from the air fryer and let them rest for 1–2 minutes. This allows the cheese to set slightly and makes slicing easier. Use a sharp knife to cut the wraps into halves or slices, then serve immediately while hot and crispy.
