What You’ll Need
Here is what you’ll need to make these air fryer green beans:
- Green Beans
- Oil
- Garlic Powder
- Black Pepper
Step By Step Instructions
- Wash the green beans and pat dry.
- Coat the green beans with oil, garlic powder and black pepper.
- Place the green beans in the air fryer basket. Try to make sure that the green beans do not overlap too much.
- Cook the green beans at 370 degrees F for 7 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. If you would like softer green beans, add an extra 1-2 minutes.
Ingredient Substitutions
- Fresh green beans: The fresh green beans may be replaced with frozen. To use frozen green beans, air fry for 12-15 minutes. Check the green beans at 12 minutes and adjust the cook time as needed.
- Oil: I used olive oil in this recipe, but you may also use coconut oil or avocado oil.
Recipe Notes
- Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket. If the basket is too full, the green beans will not cook evenly. I love the size and functionality of this ninja air fryer!
- If you prefer softer green beans, add a few minutes to the cook time. When making them for my little guys, I usually air fry the green beans for 9-10 minutes to make them more tender.
- After removing baby’s portion, toss the green beans with a little salt to taste for everyone else!
