Preheat your air fryer to 370°F (188°C) while you prepare the tortellini.
Fresh or frozen tortellini
Prepare the Tortellini:
If using fresh tortellini, you can freeze them to extend their shelf life. No need to thaw them before cooking in the air fryer.
In a bowl, toss the tortellini with a little olive oil to prevent sticking and promote even browning.
Olive oil
Air Fry the Tortellini:
Place the coated tortellini in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Be careful not to overcrowd; a handful (about 4-8 pieces) works well.
Air fry at 370°F (188°C) for 3 minutes.
Check for Doneness:
After 3 minutes, check the tortellini. They should be crispy and lightly browned on the outside. The cooking time may vary slightly depending on the size and type of tortellini, so you can adjust by adding an extra minute or two if needed.
Serve Hot:
Remove the air-fried tortellini from the air fryer basket and serve immediately.
