Ingredients
  

1 package (9 oz) refrigerated cheese ravioli

1 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs

½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 large egg

2 tablespoons milk

Cooking oil spray

Instructions
 

Prepare the Coating:

    In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the Italian breadcrumbs, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Stir the ingredients together until everything is evenly mixed, ensuring a consistent flavor profile.

      Make the Egg Wash:

        In a separate bowl, crack the large egg and add the milk. Whisk these together vigorously until the mixture is smooth and well blended, creating a light egg wash that will help the coating adhere to the ravioli.

          Cook the Ravioli:

            Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the refrigerated cheese ravioli and cook according to the package instructions, which is usually about 3-4 minutes. Once they float to the surface and are tender, drain the ravioli in a colander and set aside to cool slightly.

              Coat the Ravioli:

                Take each ravioli and dip it first into the egg wash, allowing any excess liquid to drip off. Then, roll the ravioli in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure that the coating adheres well. Repeat this process until all ravioli are thoroughly coated.

                  Preheat the Air Fryer:

                    Set your air fryer to preheat at 375°F (190°C) for approximately 5 minutes, ensuring it reaches the optimal temperature for cooking.

                      Arrange the Ravioli:

                        Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking oil spray to prevent sticking. Lay the coated ravioli bites in a single, even layer within the basket, making sure they are not overcrowded—this may require cooking in batches for best results.

                          Air Fry the Ravioli:

                            Once arranged, lightly spray the tops of the ravioli with cooking oil for an extra crispy texture. Cook in the air fryer for about 8-10 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown and crispy. Be sure to shake the basket halfway through the cook time to ensure even browning.

                              Serve and Enjoy:

                                Carefully remove the crispy ravioli bites from the air fryer using tongs to avoid breaking them. Serve them hot alongside your favorite dipping sauces, such as tangy marinara or creamy ranch dressing for the perfect appetizer experience.
