How to Make Air Fryer Ravioli
First, you’ll mix the breadcrumbs, cheese, and Italian seasoning in a bowl. Then set up a bowl with beaten eggs. Coat each ravioli in the egg mixture and breadcrumb mixture, making sure it’s fully covered.
Once everything’s prepped, arrange the ravioli in the air fryer basket, leaving just enough space so they don’t touch. This helps them crisp up evenly. Cook them until golden and crunchy, flipping halfway through and giving them a quick spray of olive oil.
Once done, pair them with warmed marinara or pesto for dipping, and you’re ready to serve. It’s as simple as that!
Tips for Making Air Fried Ravioli
Tip 1: Don’t overcrowd the basket. Cook in batches if you need to, so the ravioli gets perfectly crispy.
Tip 2: Press the breadcrumb mixture firmly onto the ravioli to help it stick.
Tip 3: Preheat your air fryer for even cooking.
Tip 4: Want to switch things up? Try experimenting with different ravioli fillings like spinach or lobster.
