Ingredient notes
- Ravioli - frozen cheese or beef or any other flavor you like
- Breadcrumbs - panko or regular seasoned are best. If you just have plain add a little extra Parmesan and seasoning.
How to make this
Beat the eggs in a small bowl to make an egg wash.
Combine the bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in another small bowl.
Using a fork, take the frozen ravioli and dip it in first the egg wash before coating it with bread crumbs.
Spray the air fryer basket with oil or line it with parchment paper. Place the ravioli inside in a single layer. Spray lightly with olive oil.
Cook at 340 degrees for a total of 8 minutes. Flip the toasted ravioli halfway through the cooking time. Spray the other side of the ravioli lightly with olive oil.
Expert tips
If you just have plain breadcrumbs then you can add parsley and Italian Herb seasonings to the air-fried ravioli.
Depending on the size of your ravioli and your individual air fryer you may need to adjust the time. Cook until done or browned to your liking.
If you just have fresh or refrigerated ravioli you can use that as well just reduce the cooking by a couple of minutes. These can be made ahead and stored in a container between layers of parchment paper in the freezer. This makes it easy to have an appetizer or snack anytime you want!
FAQs
Raw pasta is not easy to digest because the body's digestive enzymes cannot adhere to it, whereas overcooked pasta tends to form a sticky dough in the digestive tract, which blocks digestion. That means that pasta shouldn't be served under or overcooked.
Actually no! One of the best things about this recipe is that you don't have to use any breading. Just toss the ravioli with a little olive oil, pepper, and oregano and air fry it for about ten minutes a batch.
