Description
This recipe shows how to make crispy, golden gnocchi quickly using an air fryer, yielding a crunchy exterior and soft interior.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb gnocchi (shelf-stable, refrigerated, or frozen)
- 1 – 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 2 – 3 tbsp freshly grated parmesan
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 390°F and lightly grease the basket with olive oil spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the gnocchi with the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and parmesan. If using frozen gnocchi, do not thaw it.
- Add the seasoned gnocchi to the preheated basket in a single layer without overlapping.
- For shelf-stable and refrigerated gnocchi, air fry at 390°F for 11 – 14 minutes, shaking the basket every 4 to 5 minutes.
- For frozen gnocchi, air fry at 390°F for 13 – 16 minutes, also shaking the basket every 4 to 5 minutes.
- Enjoy immediately, garnished with extra parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.
Notes
Do not overcrowd the basket for best results. Shake often to ensure even cooking and browning. Storing cooked gnocchi in the fridge for up to 3 days is okay, but do not freeze.
