When you need an appetizer in a hurry, this delicious air fried toasted ravioli is more than perfect! Ready to serve in around 10 minutes, they are perfectly crispy and a breeze to make!
Toasted ravioli is one of my favorite appetizers and they are totally hassle free when cooked in the air fryer. They are super crispy on the inside and perfectly soft and creamy in the center.
I love not to worry about a pot of hot oil when making these, just pop them in the air fryer and you have a batch to serve in 6 minutes. Perfect when you have a hungry crowd to feed!
How to make Air Fried Toasted Ravioli
- Preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place egg and milk in one bowl and whisk to combine. Place breadcrumbs in another bowl.
- Place ravioli in the egg mixture and coat ravioli on both sides, letting any excess drip off. Then place in breadcrumb mixture, coating both sides. Place ravioli in a greased air fryer basket.
- Air fryer on 380 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-6 minutes. Halfway through cooking, spray and flip the ravioli.
- Place the ravioli in a bowl and toss with parmesan cheese. Garnish with parsley.
Can you make them ahead of time?
This air fryer ravioli is best served as soon as it's made so that it's nice and crispy. If you wan to get ahead of things, the breading can be done the day before and keep the ravioli covered with plastic wrap in the fridge.
If you have leftovers, they can be reheated in the air fryer at 350-400F for 3 to 4 minutes and they will get nice and crispy again.
Can you make this with frozen ravioli?
Yes! You can make this with either frozen or fresh ravioli. There's no need to thaw frozen before cooking it, just add a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
What do you serve it with?
I like to serve these with some fresh parsley for freshness and a rich marinara sauce for dipping. You can serve then with your favorite dips, garlic and herb, ranch and ketchup all work well.
Recipe Notes and Tips
- Don't overcrowd the air fryer or the ravioli won't get as crispy.
- Spray the ravioli halfway through cooking, not at the beginning. It's a tip I use when air frying anything with breading and I discuss it more in my tips for air fryers post.
- If using frozen ravioli, you’ll need to cook a few minutes longer, about 8-10 minutes.
- If you want a creamier filling, make sure to purchase ravioli that has a lot of cheesy filling.

So perfect for finger foods watching the game. Very clever. I love my air fryer and I will be trying this soon.

Can I substitute something for the egg or even leave it out entirely?

Hi, you could use just milk instead. You'll need something to help make the breading stick to the ravioli.
