Notes

  • The green beans will cook best if they’re arranged in a single layer in the air fryer. That’s what I love my Instant Vortex because it has 2 trays that I can arrange the green beans on. If you aren’t able to arrange them in a single layer, you could also try cooking them in two batches instead.
  • Don’t forget to flip the beans! To get a nice, even cook on the green beans, flip them or give the air fryer basket a shake about halfway through.
  • If you like your beans crunchy, you’ll only need to air fry them for about 5-6 minutes. If you prefer a more well done green bean, feel free to cook them for the full 10 minutes.
