Add the entire bag of cauliflower gnocchi to a medium sized mixing bowl. Add avocado oil and salt, then mix until all gnocchi are completely coated with oil.

Pour the oil coated gnocchi into the air fryer basket. Set the air fryer to 375F and cook for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket and using tongs to separate any stuck together gnocchi every 5 minutes. The cauliflower gnocchi are done when they’re golden brown and crispy to your liking! Best served immediately with marinara sauce.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Preheat and Shake Method 🌡️Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for 3 minutes, then shake the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crispiness on all sides of the gnocchi.
- Oil Distribution is Key 🫒Lightly toss the frozen gnocchi with avocado oil in a bowl before air frying—this prevents clumping and ensures every piece gets a crispy, golden exterior.
- Don't Skip the Frozen State ❄️Cook directly from frozen without thawing to maintain the fluffy interior texture; thawing will result in mushy gnocchi instead of that desirable contrast.
- Strategic Salt Timing 🧂Season with salt after cooking rather than before to prevent moisture loss; this keeps the inside tender while maintaining the crispy exterior.
- Marinara Dipping Station 🍅Warm your marinara sauce separately and serve it as a dipping sauce rather than coating the gnocchi—this preserves crispiness and lets guests control their sauce ratio.
