Easy Ingredients and Amazing Results!
Corn – Snap cobs in half to make them fit more compact air fryers. Frozen corn can be used, but thaw it in the air fryer on medium power before cooking it as directed in the recipe. Air fry corn in the husk for an impressive presentation, remove any damaged outer leaves, pull back the husk and remove the silk. Brush with oil, wrap the husk around the corn, and cook as directed in Step 2.
Optional Seasonings – Sweet corn can be played up in so many tasty ways! Try this simple compound butter made with fresh herbs. Dress corn on the cob for Mexican night and make street vendor elote with mayonnaise, cotija cheese, chili powder, and a sprinkle of cayenne. Switch up the flavors by adding a squeeze of lime juice, a sprinkle of parmesan cheese, or garlic powder.
