Ingredients
- 16 ounce dry package of potato gnocchi
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 cup marinara sauce for dipping
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated fine
Instructions
- Add the gnocchi into a large bowl and make sure to break them apart if they're sticking together. Pour in olive and salt and use your hands to toss and coat all the gnocchi.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees. Once preheated, add the gnocchi in one layer and close. Cook for 10-12 minutes, shaking half way through.
- In a medium skillet over medium low heat, melt butter and add in garlic. Cook for 90 seconds until lightly toasted.
- Pour hot garlic butter into a large bowl.
- If you want to serve the gnocchi with marinara, heat the sauce on low in a saucepan or the same skillet as the garlic butter.
- Once the gnocchi are nice and crispy, add them to the warm garlic butter. Sprinkle in the oregano, basil and parmesan cheese. Toss to combine.
- Serve with the side of warm marinara and enjoy!
Notes
- Make sure to preheat the air fryer before adding them so it's nice and hot and they can get really crispy exteriors.
- To avoid burning the garlic, transfer the garlic butter to a bowl as soon as it's cooked.
