3-Ingredient Air Fryer Corn on the Cob, a delicious new way to cook corn. Crispy and buttery corn, with delicious charred bits, then seasoned generously with salt, it really can't get any better than that. It's a simple method, but for me, it's by far the most delicious way to enjoy corn.

Notes

Use fresh corn on the cob for this recipe, the fresher, the better results, otherwise the corn will be dry and rather tough, and simply not as enjoyable.
To check for freshness, peel off a small section of the husk awaym and use your thumb to press againist a few kernels. If there is juice squirting out when they pop, the corn is fresh and ready to be cooked.
If you do not cook the corn straight away, I recommend it to be kept in a cool place, or refrigerated, it does dry out quick if left in a warm room.
