Description

Warm, gooey, and bursting with Italian flavor—this baked gnocchi dish is the ultimate comfort food. Pillowy gnocchi, rich marinara, melty mozzarella, and fresh basil come together in one easy, oven-baked skillet you’ll want to make on repeat.

 


Ingredients

Scale

1 lb pre-made gnocchi (ricotta or potato)

2 cups marinara sauce

½ cup fresh basil, chiffonade or chopped (plus extra for garnish)

8 oz whole milk mozzarella, shredded or torn if using fresh


Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

 

Boil gnocchi in salted water until they float (about 2–3 minutes). Drain.

 

In a large oven-safe dish or skillet, mix cooked gnocchi with marinara and basil.

 

Top with mozzarella and bake for 15–20 minutes until bubbly.

 

Broil for 2–3 minutes for golden cheese, if desired.

 

Garnish with more fresh basil and serve warm.
