Description

Reheating corn on the cob in an air fryer is a quick and efficient way to revive the crispy exterior while keeping the inside tender and flavorful. This method is perfect for bringing back that delightful crunch to your leftover corn.

Ingredients 

  • 4 ears Cooked and refrigerated corn on the cob
  • 2 teaspoons butter

Instructions

  • Preheat the Air Fryer: Start by preheating your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the corn will cook evenly.
  • Prepare the Corn: Take your cooked and refrigerated corn on the cob out of the refrigerator. There's no need to thaw it.
  • Wrap in Aluminum Foil: Individually wrap each corn cob in aluminum foil. Wrapping them helps retain moisture during reheating.
  • Place in the Air Fryer: Once the air fryer is preheated, carefully place the foil-wrapped corn cobs in the air fryer basket. You can stack them if necessary, but avoid overcrowding to allow for proper circulation of hot air.
  • Reheat: Cook the corn in the air fryer for about 5-8 minutes, turning the cobs halfway through to ensure even heating. The exact time may vary depending on the size of your corn and the air fryer's wattage.
  • Check for Doneness: After reheating, carefully remove the corn from the air fryer using tongs or oven mitts. Unwrap the foil (be cautious; it will be hot) and check if the corn is heated to your liking. It should be hot throughout and have a slightly crispy exterior.
  • Serve: Once the corn is reheated and has that delightful crispy texture, serve it immediately with your favorite seasonings and toppings.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Aluminum Foil, optional

Notes

Notes:
  • Ensure the corn on the cob is fully cooked and then refrigerated before reheating.
  • Adjust the air fryer temperature and time based on your specific air fryer model.
  • Use oven mitts or tongs when handling hot corn and aluminum foil.
  • Customize your corn by adding butter, herbs, or seasonings before reheating for extra flavor.
