Description

Golden, juicy, and ready in minutes, this Air Fryer Corn on the Cob brings all the flavor of grilled corn without the fuss. Perfectly seasoned, lightly crisp on the outside, and tender on the inside.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ears Fresh Corn on the Cob, husked and cleaned
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for about 3 minutes.
  2. Rub each ear of corn with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper on all sides.
  3. Place corn in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they don’t overlap.
  4. Air fry for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and tender.
  5. Remove and immediately brush with melted butter.
  6. Sprinkle fresh parsley if using, then serve hot.

Notes

  • Thawed frozen corn can be used, just dry well before cooking.
  • Experiment with seasonings like smoked paprika or chili powder for variety.
