With a delightful crunch on the outside and a gooey, cheesy filling on the inside, these air fryer ravioli are incredibly easy to make.

Ingredients
(Tip: You'll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
1 package of frozen ravioli (about 12 oz)
½ cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 egg, beaten
Marinara sauce for dipping
Directions
I start by preheating my air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
In a shallow bowl, I mix the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper together.
Then, I dip each ravioli into the beaten egg, ensuring it’s fully coated. After that, I dredge it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to make sure the breadcrumbs stick.
I place the breaded ravioli in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd it. If necessary, I do this in batches.
I air fry the ravioli for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they’re golden and crispy.
Once done, I remove them from the air fryer and serve them immediately with marinara sauce for dipping.

Storage/Reheating
If I happen to have leftovers, I store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. When I'm ready to enjoy them again, I reheat them in the air fryer at 375°F for about 3-5 minutes to restore their crispy texture. Avoid microwaving as it can make them soggy.
FAQs
Can I use fresh ravioli for this recipe?
I recommend using frozen ravioli because it holds up better in the air fryer and gives the desired crispy texture. Fresh ravioli can be used, but it may require more careful handling to prevent it from falling apart.
Can I use any type of breadcrumb?
I prefer panko breadcrumbs because they give a lighter, crispier texture, but you can use regular breadcrumbs if that’s what you have on hand.
How do I prevent the ravioli from sticking to the air fryer basket?
To avoid sticking, I lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray or use parchment paper that’s specifically designed for the air fryer. This ensures the ravioli comes out easily and doesn’t stick.
What dipping sauces can I serve with these ravioli?
Marinara sauce is my go-to, but you can also serve them with ranch dressing, garlic butter, or even a spicy marinara sauce for extra kick.
Can I make these ahead of time?
I like to make these right before serving to get the best crispy texture, but if I need to prepare them in advance, I bread the ravioli and store them in the fridge for up to an hour before air frying them.
Conclusion
These air fryer ravioli are an easy, flavorful snack or appetizer that’s bound to be a hit with everyone. The crispy coating and cheesy filling pair perfectly with marinara sauce, making them a delicious treat any time of day. With just a few ingredients and minimal effort, I can create a dish that’s crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside, satisfying my cravings in no time.
