Sure, here’s a simple air fryer corn on the cob recipe for you, along with some notes to ensure you get the best results:
Easy Air Fryer Corn on the Cob Recipe:
Ingredients:
- Fresh corn on the cob, husked and cleaned
- Olive oil or melted butter
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). This will ensure even cooking.
- Prep the Corn: Brush each ear of corn with a thin layer of olive oil or melted butter. This helps the corn caramelize and develop a nice roasted flavor. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
- Air Frying: Place the prepped corn in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you might need to cook the corn in batches.
- Cooking Time: Cook the corn for about 12-15 minutes, turning the corn every 5 minutes to ensure even cooking. The exact cooking time may vary depending on the size of the corn and the air fryer model you’re using. The corn should be tender and slightly charred in spots.
- Serve: Once the corn is cooked to your liking, remove it from the air fryer and let it cool for a minute before serving. You can optionally brush on more melted butter or sprinkle with additional salt and pepper before serving.
Notes:
- Corn Varieties: This recipe works well with different types of corn, such as sweet corn or white corn. Choose fresh, high-quality corn for the best results.
- Oil/Butter: You can use either olive oil or melted butter, or even a combination of both, to brush the corn. This adds flavor and helps with browning.
- Seasonings: Feel free to get creative with your seasonings. You can use garlic powder, paprika, chili powder, or herbs like thyme or rosemary to add extra flavor.
- Corn Size: Adjust the cooking time based on the size of your corn. Larger ears might require a few extra minutes.
- Turning the Corn: Turning the corn during cooking ensures even browning. Use tongs to gently rotate the corn every 5 minutes.
- Charred Corn: A bit of charring adds delicious flavor, but be careful not to overcook and burn the corn.
- Serving Ideas: Serve your air fryer corn on the cob as a side dish for barbecues, picnics, or alongside your favorite meals.
Enjoy your delicious air fryer corn on the cob!
