Ingredients

  • 1 bag Trader Joe's cauliflower gnocchi
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (about 200°C).
  • If the gnocchi are frozen, spread them on a microwave-safe plate and microwave 1–2 minutes until fully thawed.
  • Arrange the gnocchi in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving small gaps between pieces for even crisping.
  • Lightly spray the gnocchi with cooking spray to help them brown.
  • Cook for 10 minutes, then shake the basket or gently toss the gnocchi and cook an additional 5–10 minutes until they reach your desired golden crispness.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • microwave-safe plate
  • Cooking Spray

Notes

  • Thawing briefly in the microwave ensures even cooking.
  • Do not overcrowd the basket for best crisping.
  • Adjust final cook time for lighter or darker browning.
