INGREDIENTS:
- 1 egg
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- ⅛ teaspoon ground rosemary
- ¼ teaspoon basil
- ¼ teaspoon parsley
- 9-ounce package uncooked cheese ravioli
- ¼ cup flour
- Oil for misting or cooking spray
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Start by preheating your air fryer to 390°F (199°C).
- In a medium bowl, beat together the egg and milk, creating a simple egg wash.
- In a large plastic bag, combine the breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, rosemary, basil, and parsley. Mix them well to create a flavorful coating mixture.
- Place the uncooked cheese ravioli and the flour into a bag or bowl with a lid. Shake the bag or bowl to ensure the ravioli gets coated with flour evenly.
- Working with a handful of floured ravioli at a time, dip them into the prepared egg wash. Allow any excess to drip off before transferring the ravioli to the bag with breadcrumbs.
- Once all the ravioli are in the breadcrumb bag, shake it vigorously to coat each piece thoroughly.
- Arrange enough ravioli in the air fryer basket to form a single layer. Give them a light misting of oil or use cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Add the remaining ravioli on top of the first layer and give them another light misting of oil.
- Cook the ravioli in the air fryer for 5 minutes. Afterward, give them a shake to ensure even cooking and spray them with oil again. If any ravioli are stuck together, separate them gently.
- Continue cooking for an additional 4 to 6 minutes, or until the ravioli puff up and turn crispy and golden brown.
- Once cooked to perfection, remove the ravioli from the air fryer and serve them hot with your favorite sauce for dipping.
In just under 20 minutes, you’ll have a plate of irresistible Cheese Ravioli that are not only a breeze to make but also incredibly satisfying to eat. This recipe is a testament to the fact that sometimes, the simplest dishes bring the most joy to the table. Enjoy the delightful combination of crispy texture and cheesy goodness with every bite!
