The easiest and crispiest air fryer gnocchi recipe that takes less than 15 minutes to make. They are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Use frozen, shelf-stable, or refrigerated potato, cauliflower, and sweet potato gnocchi for an easy appetizer, snack, or side dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb gnocchi (shelf-stable, refrigerator, or frozen (regular, cauliflower, or sweet potato))
  • 1 - 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 - 3 tbsp freshly grated parmesan

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat your air fryer to 390°F and lightly grease the basket with olive oil spray.

  2. 2

    In a large mixing bowl, toss the gnocchi with the rest of the ingredients. If useing frozen gnocchi, DO NOT thaw it.

  3. 3

    Add seasoned gnocchi to the preheated basket. Try to avoid overlapping because they won’t get as crispy.

  4. 4

    Stelf-Stable & Refrigerated Gnocchi: Air fry at 390°F for 11 - 14 minutes, shaking the basket every 4 to 5 minutes, so they are perfectly golden on all sides. The gnocchi is done when the outsides are golden (not burned) and crispy.

  5. 5

    Frozen Gnocchi: Air fry at 390°F for 13 - 16 minutes, shaking the basket every 4 to 5 minutes, so they are perfectly golden on all sides. Frozen gnocchi takes a little bit longer to air fry, but the gnocchi should still be done when the outsides are golden (not burned) and crispy.

  6. 6

    Enjoy immediately. Garnish with extra parmesan cheese and fresh parsley. Serve as a side with your favorite main dish, as an appetizer with marinara sauce or pesto for dipping, or add as a “crouton” on your favorite salad.
