Crispy air-fryer corn ribs are a delightful and healthy alternative to traditional snacks. With their satisfying crunch and savory flavor, they're perfect for anyone seeking a guilt-free treat.

These corn ribs are not only easy to prepare but also packed with nutrients. Ideal for vegans and those looking to incorporate more veggies into their diet, they make a fantastic appetizer or side dish for any meal.

Ingredients

  • 4 ears of corn, husked and cut into quarters
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil)
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (400°F).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the corn ribs with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  3. Arrange the corn ribs in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  4. Air fry for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
  5. Remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with your favorite dip or seasoning!

Pro tips for maximum crisp

  • For extra crispiness, ensure corn ribs are well-coated and spaced apart in the air fryer.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days; reheat in the air fryer to regain crispiness.
  • Experiment with different seasonings like chili powder or nutritional yeast for added flavor!
