Ingredients
  

  • 2 fresh ears of corn, shucked and cleaned
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Oil spray or olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Instructions
 

  • Remove leaves and silk from the corn. Cut ends to fit air fryer basket, or in half if needed.
  • Coat all sides of the corn with oil spray or olive oil. Season generously with salt and black pepper.
  • Air Fry at 370°F (188°C) for 12-16 minutes, flipping halfway through, until kernels are tender and lightly browned.
  • Once cooked, spread softened butter all over the hot corn. Add additional seasonings if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

- Ensure all corn silk is removed before air frying to prevent burning.
- For extra flavor, consider adding garlic powder or paprika along with the salt and pepper.
- If your corn is very large, cutting it in half can ensure more even cooking.
