Air Fryer Tips & Tricks
Always preheat the air fryer before adding the corn so the hot air can seal in the sweet flavors! Be sure the corn is dry before brushing it with oil so it adheres properly. Peel off the husk and silk before cooking, or leave it on as long as it’s wrapped around the entire ear so it cooks evenly. Pull the husk back, remove the ‘silk’, season, and cook as directed.
Storing Leftover Corn
Store leftover air fryer corn on the cob in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat it in the air fryer. Use leftover corn in corn salad or serve as Mexican street corn. Leftover corn can be frozen in zippered bags for up to 3 months or cut off the cob and added to soups, stews, or stir-fries! Did your family love this Air Fryer Corn on the Cob?
