Air Fryer Green Beans
Description
Air Fryer Green Beans focus on trimming fresh green beans and seasoning them with olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper. Cooking at 190°C/375℉ for 8-10 minutes, with shaking halfway through, helps the beans roast evenly and develop a satisfying texture with crisp edges while staying tender inside. The use of an air fryer reduces excess oil and keeps the beans light.
The straightforward combination highlights the natural flavor of the green beans enhanced by the subtle seasoning and roasting process. This recipe works well alongside a variety of main dishes requiring a simple vegetable.
To keep the green beans crispy, avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket so air can circulate properly. It's best to serve the beans hot as they tend to lose crispness on cooling. Optionally, adding pine nuts before serving can contribute extra crunch and texture.
Ingredients
- 450 g green beans trimmed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
Instructions
- Put the beans into the air fryer. Drizzle over the oil and add the salt and pepper. Mix well so that the beans are coated.

Notes
- Do not overload the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Cooking in batches may be necessary based on basket size.
- Consume the green beans while hot to retain their texture.
- Add toasted pine nuts before serving for added crunch and flavor.
