Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 4 ears of frozen corn half size

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400F.
  • Lay the frozen corn on the bottom of the air fryer basket, leaving space in between each cob. There's no need to grease the basket if it is non-stick. If you have an air fryer oven, spritz oil on the bottom of the basket.
  • Air fry the corn on the cob for 7-10 minutes until it's heated through and warm, flipping the corn after 4-5 minutes of cooking time. Whether or not your cooking whole cobs or the half-size mini cobs will determine how long they need to cook.
  • Remove the corn from the air fryer and serve warm with melted butter, salt, and pepper. Enjoy!

Notes

Frozen corn is already partially cooked, and cooking it from frozen not only gets it on the table fast, but it helps to make the corn juicy since it retains moisture.
We used the half-size mini cobs, you can use the whole size frozen cobs and assume they could take a couple of extra minutes to cook.
While you can wrap each ear of corn during cooking in foil, we found that it wasn't necessary since the melted ice kept the corn juicy.
