Equipment

  • 1 air fryer
  • 1 basting brush for oiling
  • 1 tongs for turning

Ingredients
  

Corn

  • 4 ears frozen corn on the cob

Seasoning

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Remove the corn from the freezer and allow it to thaw slightly at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
  • Brush the corn with olive oil using a basting brush. Season generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Cooking

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes.
  • Place the corn in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 12-15 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

Serving

  • Remove the corn from the air fryer and serve immediately. Optionally, add a pat of butter, a sprinkle of Parmesan, or fresh herbs as desired.

Storage

  • Store any leftover corn in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer for a few minutes to regain crispiness.

Notes

Pro Tips: Ensure even spacing in the air fryer for uniform crispiness. Ingredient Substitutions: Use avocado oil for a different flavor. How to Serve: Top with fresh herbs or cheese for added flavor. Storage & Freshness: Keep in the fridge for up to 3 days. Make-Ahead Tips: Pre-season corn and store in the fridge until ready to cook.
