A time for corn harvest is not complete without enjoying and feasting on corn, however it is  cooked.   We used to often boil corn when we have a  fresh harvest.

But this time around, we usually use our trusty air fryer to cook corn simply because it is faster and overall more convenient.

This air fried corn is great for snacking or when the family is enjoying outdoors.  It is also very filling.
