Notes
- I always make sure the gnocchi is in a single layer in the air fryer basket. If they are too crowded, they end up steaming instead of crisping, so I cook in batches if I need to. This little step is key for that crispy outside and tender inside texture. Don't skip it!
- When I want to change things up, I swap the olive oil for avocado oil. It gives the gnocchi a slightly richer flavor.
- If I am using Trader Joe’s cauliflower gnocchi, I skip the directions on the bag. They turn out much better when I follow this air fryer method instead.
- I like to try different ways of cooking them, like pan-frying or baking, but the air fryer always gives me the crispiest texture.
- I always play around with the spices too. This recipe is super flexible, so I toss in whatever seasonings I am in the mood for.
