Cut spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds. Brush cut sides with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Place cut-side down in the air fryer. Air fry at 375°F for 20-25 minutes until tender when pierced with a fork.
Flip cut-side up. Use a fork to scrape the flesh into strands inside the shell.
Spoon marinara over the strands, top with mozzarella and Parmesan. Air fry 3-5 more minutes until cheese is bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil and red pepper flakes. Serve in the shell.
Tip: Don't try to fit a huge squash — pick one that fits your basket with the lid closed. The squash is done when a fork easily pierces the skin and the flesh shreds into strands.
