Here’s a quick and easy recipe for Air-Fried Corn—sweet, slightly crispy, and perfect as a snack or side dish.
Air-Fried Corn on the Cob
Ingredients
- 2 ears of corn, husked and cleaned
- 1–2 tsp olive oil or melted butter
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional toppings: paprika, garlic powder, Parmesan cheese, fresh herbs
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer:
- 400°F (200°C) for 3–5 minutes.
- Prepare the corn:
- Brush corn with olive oil or melted butter.
- Season with salt, pepper, and any optional spices.
- Air fry:
- Place corn in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
- Cook 10–12 minutes, turning halfway, until corn is slightly browned and tender.
- Serve:
- Remove corn, add extra butter or toppings if desired.
- Serve hot as a side or snack.
Tips:
- For extra flavor, sprinkle with smoked paprika, Parmesan, or fresh herbs after cooking.
- Cut corn into halves or thirds if your air fryer basket is small.
- For a charred effect, cook 1–2 minutes longer, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
I can also give a Mexican-style air-fried corn recipe with lime, chili powder, and cotija cheese for a street-corn flavor.
