HOW TO MAKE AIR FRYER GREEN BEANS
These air fryer green beans are so easy to make you barely even need a recipe. 🙂
STEP ONE: PREPARE GREEN BEANS
Start off by washing the fresh green beans.
Trim the ends off the green beans with kitchen shears.
Spread the green beans out on a cutting board and spray with olive oil spray to coat them.
STEP TWO: SEASON GREEN BEANS
Place the oiled green beans into a large bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
STEP THREE: AIR FRY GREEN BEANS
Now place the green beans in a single layer in the air fryer’s basket. Laying them in a single row will help the green beans be crisper.
Air fry at 400 degrees for about 8 minutes. Give the basket a shake about halfway through the cooking time.
When the ends of the green beans start to brown, you will know they are done cooking.
