How to Prepare Crispy Pesto-Stuffed Ravioli [Vegan]
To Make the Pesto:
- Roast the nuts in a pan for a few minutes, stirring frequently, until they turn brown and slightly fragrant. Be careful, as they can burn very quickly.
- Put all ingredients in a mixer and process until smooth.
- Taste and set aside for the ravioli filling.
To Make the Ravioli:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Add the durum wheat semolina with the flour and salt in a bowl.
- Pour the water and olive oil into the bowl and knead the dough with your hands until everything is well combined.
- Knead vigorously for several minutes because durum wheat semolina takes some time until it forms a dough.
- Let the dough chill for one hour.
- Knead the pasta again then divide it into equal-sized pieces.
- On a well-floured surface, take half the dough and roll it out to a thin sheet.
- Add a teaspoon of filling to the corner the dough sheet. Continue to add teaspoons of filling, making sure that they are evenly spaced.
- Roll out the other half of the dough and place on top of the dough sheet that has the filling. Lightly press down on the edges and using a cookie cutter, cut out ravioli. Press down on the edges of each ravioli with a fork
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook ravioli for 2-3 minutes. Drain and quickly spread them out on a plate so they will not stick together.
- Coat each ravioli thoroughly with the almond flour/breadcrumbs, pressing to adhere. Place on the prepared baking sheet and repeat until finished.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until crispy and golden.
To Make the Dipping Sauce:
- Place all ingredients into a food processor and blend 2-3 minutes until all the ingredients are mixed.


You know, I’ve made ravioli before and it’s such a pain to make them, but you could do a lasagne type dish instead but using the pesto recipe as the layers between the lasagne pasta. So much simpler and you’d get that fabulous taste. Gotta try this for sure.
