Notes
- Seasoning: I use about 1 tablespoon of a salt-free garlic and herb blend per 12 oz. of green beans. If your seasoning contains salt, start with about 1 teaspoon per pound and add more to taste.
- Cooking time: Thinner green beans may cook faster. Start checking at 6 minutes, then cook in 2-minute increments until tender with browned, crisp edges.
- For the best texture: Give the green beans room in the air fryer basket and toss them halfway through cooking.
- Frozen green beans: If you’re starting with frozen beans, use my Air Fryer Frozen Green Beans recipe instead. Frozen green beans cook differently and won’t get as crisp as fresh ones.
