Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
In a medium bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined and set aside.
Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Arrange half of the ravioli in a single layer over the sauce.
Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the ravioli, then sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella on top.
Repeat the layers: add another layer of marinara sauce, the remaining ravioli, the remaining ricotta mixture, and 1 more cup of shredded mozzarella.
Top everything with the grated Parmesan cheese and cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh basil if desired, and serve warm.
