Air Fryer Gnocchi and Squash with Brown Butter and Sage

Gnocchi in an air fryer? This recipe will make you a believer! After testing several methods, we found that cooking the gnocchi first resulted in the soft pillowy centers we expect from gnocchi, while still giving the exterior a nice golden crunch. Paired with roasted squash, toasted walnuts, brown butter and sage, this dish is cold weather comfort at its best.

Ingreadient

  • kosher salt
  • 1 pound fresh or frozen gnocchi (see cook's note)
  • 1 large delicata squash (about 1 1/2 pounds)
  • extra-virgin olive oil, for the squash and gnocchi
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
  • 8 large fresh sage leaves, sliced into thin ribbons
  • 1/2 cup coarsely grated or shaved parmesan
