A home-friendly twist on toasted ravioli, using air fryer crunch for speed and less oil.
Story
Whenever we order ravioli out, someone always steals the last crispy piece off the plate. These bites solve that problem at home, because you can make a whole batch in about half an hour. I like setting out warm marinara and letting everyone grab and dip as they walk through the kitchen.

Ingredients
- 1 (18 oz) package refrigerated cheese ravioli
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- Cooking spray or 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup warm marinara sauce, for dipping
Instructions
- Set up a breading station, beat eggs in one bowl. In another bowl, mix panko, Parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Dip ravioli in egg, let excess drip, then press into the breadcrumb mixture to coat.
- Preheat air fryer to 400 F for 3 minutes. Spray the basket lightly.
- Arrange ravioli in a single layer. Spray tops lightly. Air fry 6 minutes, flip, then air fry 4 to 6 minutes more until deep golden.
- Warm marinara in a small pot or microwave while the ravioli finish.
- Serve ravioli bites hot with marinara for dipping. Sprinkle with extra Parmesan if you like.
Chef Tips
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer, work in batches for the crispiest bites.
- Use meat ravioli if that is what you have, the method is the same.
- If you do not have an air fryer, bake on a rack at 425 F for 18 to 22 minutes, flipping halfway.
- Leftovers re-crisp well in the air fryer for 2 to 3 minutes.
Cook's Notes
- **Breading tip:** Press crumbs onto the ravioli so the coating sticks.
- **Batching:** Cook in two rounds if needed, crowding leads to soft spots.
- **Oven option:** Bake on a wire rack so hot air circulates underneath.
