Air frying corn on the cob is a delicious and healthier alternative to traditional methods of cooking. It results in a crispy and flavorful corn without the need for excess oil. Here’s a simple recipe to air fry corn on the cob:
Ingredients:
- Fresh corn on the cob
- Olive oil or cooking spray
- Salt and pepper (optional)
- Butter (optional)
- Your choice of seasonings (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for a few minutes.
- Meanwhile, shuck the corn and remove the husks and silk strands.
- Lightly brush the corn with olive oil or use cooking spray to coat it evenly. This will help the corn to crisp up in the air fryer.
- If desired, season the corn with salt, pepper, or your choice of spices, such as paprika, garlic powder, or chili powder. You can get creative with the seasonings based on your preferences.
- Place the corn in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Air fry the corn for about 10-15 minutes, flipping the corn halfway through the cooking time. The exact time may vary depending on your air fryer model and the thickness of the corn.
- Keep an eye on the corn to prevent it from burning. The corn should turn golden brown and develop a slightly crispy texture.
- Once done, remove the corn from the air fryer and let it cool for a few minutes.
- If desired, spread some butter over the corn while it’s still warm, allowing it to melt and enhance the flavor.
- Serve the air-fried corn on the cob as a delicious side dish or enjoy it on its own.
Remember, cooking times may vary, so it’s a good idea to keep an eye on the corn as it air fries to ensure it reaches your desired level of doneness. Enjoy your air-fried corn on the cob!
