Crispy Air Fryer Gnocchi in Under 15 Minutes

This clever twist on traditional gnocchi is crispy on the outside and pillowy soft on the inside and come together in under 15 minutes! They taste surprisingly great on their own as a snack or appetizer, but swap for boiled gnocchi and toss in your favorite sauce for an easy dinner!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 package gnocchi 1 lb
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat air fryer to 390 degrees f for 5-10 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, toss gnocchi with oil, garlic, salt and black pepper.
  • Dump into the air fryer basket. (The best way is in a single layer, but when I don't have time to cook a double batch, separately, I just do everything together, adding a few minutes to the cook time and compromising some of the crispiness for speed.)
  • Cook for 12-14 minutes, air frying until crispy. For best results, stir at least once during the cook time.
