Calories: 119kcal
Equipment
- 5.8 quart basket air fryer (Cosori XL) or other AF model
Ingredients
- 3-4 ears Corn on the Cob shucked and cleaned
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil or olive oil spray
- Salt and Black Pepper to taste
- (optional) Melted Butter
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 370 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place CORN EARS in air fryer basket and brush OLIVE OIL to coat the entire surface.
- Air fry corn ears 12-15 minutes until cooked through with slightly crispy edges, turning as needed for even browning. *see recipe footnote
- Carefully transfer corn to a serving plate. Serve warm with optional SALT, PEPPER, and MELTED BUTTER.
Notes
- shucking is recommended - For safety reasons, I advise against air frying corn ears with the husks on. This is to prevent burning the husks since the corn will likely be in close proximity to the air fryer heating element.
- placement - To ensure proper air circulation and optimal cooking, leave at least one inch of space between each corn ear when filling the air fryer.
- corn temperature - Room temperature corn on the cob cooks slightly faster than chilled corn, which may reduce the final air fryer cook time by a few minutes.
- final cook time - Adjust cooking time based on corn size and desired level of browning and doneness.
