2. Assemble the Egg Rolls
Lay the egg roll wrappers on parchment paper.
Spread a spoonful of the seasoned sauce onto each wrapper.
Place about 5 slices of pepperoni in the center of each wrapper. Add one mozzarella string cheese stick on top.
In a small bowl, mix the shredded Parmesan and Colby Jack cheeses together. Sprinkle the cheese mixture over the pepperoni and mozzarella.

After 3 minutes, brush the tops of the egg rolls with the garlic butter. Return to the air fryer and cook for another 3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
4. Serve
Serve warm with extra marinara sauce for dipping.
