Equipment

Ingredients
 

  • 1 pound (454 g) green beans trimmed
  • Olive oil cooking spray
  • 1/2 teaspoon (3 g) salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon (1 g) red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon (0.5 g) ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Place the green beans in the air fryer and spray with olive oil spray.
  • Cook on 400° F(200° C) for 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking.
  • When done, season with salt, red pepper flakes, and black pepper.

Notes

  • If you like your green beans slightly crispy still, cook for only 10 minutes.
  • Use any other seasonings you like to flavor your green beans, like garlic salt, soy sauce, or seasoned salt.
  • It's okay if the green beans overlap a bit in the air fryer basket.

All air fryers have different wattage and may cook at different rates. You may need to adjust the time or temp for the best results.
