Easy Air Fryer Corn on the Cob
Air fryer corn on the cob using just butter, salt, and herbs (if you want) to make a delicious summer side dish that tastes like it's fresh off the grill. It's easy to put together and is one of my favorites to make all summer!
Equipment

- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley or 3 teaspoon fresh
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions

Notes
- Cook the ears in a single layer and make sure the corn isn’t touching so the hot air has plenty of room to circulate.
- Use a corn de-silker to remove every bit of silk easily.
- Buy the corn the same day you plan to air fry it for the best results.
- Take the husks off so they don’t burn in the air fryer.
- Use aluminum foil for softer corn without crispy spots.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheat leftovers in a preheated air fryer at 350 degrees F for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Cook frozen corn preheated at 380 degrees F for 3-4 minutes, baste with the butter mixture, then air fry another 10 to 12 minutes.
