Air fryer corn on the cob comes out juicy, crisp, and full of flavor in just fifteen minutes. Skip the boiling water and make this easy side dish anytime.
Mix the olive oil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
Rub the mixture onto each ear of corn.
Place the ears of corn into the air fryer basket and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, turning halfway through, or until the kernels are tender and slightly charred. If using frozen corn, increase the cooking time to 15 to 17 minutes.
While the corn is cooking, melt the butter in the microwave.
Once the corn is cooked, brush each ear with the melted butter and sprinkle with a little more salt and pepper if you like.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
Notes
Make sure to check your air fryer manual for cooking time guidelines for your specific model, as times and temperatures vary depending on the type of air fryer you have.
Depending on the size of your air fryer and how many cobs of corn you are cooking, you may need to air fry corn in more than one batch.
