The Kitchn: Corn on the cob is the best thing to cook in the air fryer this summer
Serves 4
1 to 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 ears corn
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for serving
1. Cut 1 to 2 tablespoons unsalted butter into 4 pieces and place on the edge of a cutting board or in a small bowl and let come to room temperature while you prepare the corn.
2. Heat an air fryer to 400 F. Meanwhile, shuck 4 ears corn if needed. If needed, cut each corn in half to fit in the air fryer in a single layer.
3. Rub the corn all over with 1 teaspoon olive oil and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Working in batches if needed, place in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they do not overlap.
4. Air-fry until tender and lightly charred around the edges, flipping halfway through, 6 to 8 minutes total.Rub all over with the butter. Sprinkle with more kosher salt if desired.
Recipe note: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to five days.
