Ingredients
  

  • 1 package of frozen ravioli
  • 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup of ricotta cheese
  • 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • Marinara sauce for dipping

Method
 

  1. Preheat the Air Fryer
  2. Begin by preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that your ravioli bites cook evenly and develop that perfect golden crispiness. Allow the air fryer to heat for at least 3 minutes before adding your ravioli bites.
  3. Prepare the Cheese Filling
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese, grated parmesan cheese, ricotta cheese, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated. This creamy mixture is what gives these ravioli bites their "million dollar" flavor profile.
  5. Assemble the Ravioli Bites
  6. Take one frozen ravioli and place a generous spoonful of the cheese mixture in the center. Top with another ravioli to create a sandwich and firmly press the edges together to seal completely. Make sure no filling is escaping from the sides to prevent leakage during cooking.
  7. Arrange in Air Fryer
  8. Carefully place the assembled ravioli bites in the air fryer basket, ensuring they're arranged in a single layer with some space between each piece. This allows the hot air to circulate properly and ensures even cooking and crispiness on all sides.
  9. Cook to Golden Perfection
  10. Cook the ravioli bites for 8-10 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown color and achieve a crispy texture. You may want to check them after 6 minutes and adjust the cooking time as needed based on your specific air fryer model.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can brush the ravioli bites with a little olive oil or melted butter before cooking. For variety, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the cheese mixture for a spicy kick. These ravioli bites are best served immediately while hot and crispy. If you have leftovers, you can reheat them in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes at 350°F to restore their crispiness.
