Ingredients
Scale
For the Corn:
- 4 ears corn (shucked)
For the Spice Mix:
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
For the Honey Butter:
- 1 stick butter (melted)
- 3 tablespoons honey
For Garnish:
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the spice mix: In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, paprika, and granulated garlic. Mix well and set aside to allow the flavors to meld.
- Make the honey butter: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted butter and honey until fully blended and smooth. Set aside for brushing onto the corn.
- Preheat and season the corn: Preheat your air fryer to 380℉ (193℃). Brush some of the honey butter mixture evenly over each ear of corn. Then generously sprinkle the prepared spice mix over all sides of the corn, ensuring each ear is well coated.
- Air fry the corn: Place the seasoned ears of corn in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry for 10 minutes to allow the corn to cook and spice flavors to infuse.
- Brush and finish cooking: After the initial 10 minutes, carefully brush the corn again with the remaining honey butter. Return the corn to the air fryer and cook for an additional 5 minutes until the corn is tender and caramelized.
- Garnish and serve: Remove the corn from the air fryer, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately with any extra honey butter on the side. Enjoy your perfectly sweet and savory air fried corn on the cob!
Notes
- Shuck the corn completely before air frying for the best results and to prevent burning.
- You can adjust the amount of honey and spices to suit your taste preferences.
- If your air fryer has a smaller basket, cook corn in batches to avoid overcrowding and ensure even cooking.
- Fresh parsley adds a vibrant color and slight freshness that complements the sweet and smoky flavors.
- Leftover honey butter can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated gently before serving.
