The Ingredients You’ll Need

  • Ravioli
  • Bread Crumbs
  • Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • Garlic Powder
  • Italian Seasoning
  • Salt
  • Eggs
  • Marinara Sauce (for Dipping)

Let’s Get Cooking!

  1. If using frozen ravioli, simply cook it according to package instructions and let it cool for a few minutes.

  2. In a large bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a couple pinches of salt.

  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until combined.

  4. Now, it’s breading time! Dip each ravioli into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it in the breadcrumb mixture. Press down gently to help it stick!

  5. Preheat your air fryer or oven to 375°F (190°C).

  6. Arrange the coated ravioli in a single layer in the air fryer basket or place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  7. Spray lightly with cooking spray or drizzle a bit of olive oil over the top for that lovely golden crisp!

  8. Air fry for 10-12 minutes or bake for about 15-20 minutes, turning halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy!

  9. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping, and watch them disappear in minutes!
