Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 10-ounce package ravioli (fresh or frozen, thawed)
- 2/3 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (or dried basil)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
- Cooking spray
- 1 cup marinara sauce (warmed, for serving)
Instructions
- Prepare breading mixture: In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning (or dried basil), and salt, mixing well to blend the flavors.
- Beat eggs: In another shallow dish, lightly beat the two large eggs with a fork until smooth and uniform in consistency.
- Bread the ravioli: Dip each ravioli piece into the beaten eggs to coat thoroughly, then dredge it in the bread crumb mixture until fully covered with the breadcrumb coating.
- Arrange in air fryer: Place the breaded ravioli in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, ensuring pieces are not overlapping. Work in batches if necessary to avoid crowding.
- Spray with cooking spray: Lightly spray the ravioli with cooking spray to help achieve a golden brown and crispy texture during air frying.
- Cook ravioli: Air fry at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 6 minutes, or until the ravioli turn golden and crisp on the outside.
- Serve warm: Remove from the air fryer and serve the toasted ravioli warm alongside warmed marinara sauce for dipping.
Notes
- To reheat toasted ravioli, you can bake them in the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes.
- Alternatively, reheat in an air fryer at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 3-5 minutes until warmed through.
- If an air fryer is not available, baking in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes (flipping halfway through) is a good substitute cooking method.
- For extra crispiness, ensure ravioli are not crowded in the air fryer basket to allow even heat circulation.
- You can customize the seasoning in the bread crumb mixture by adding garlic powder or crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
