Ingredients for Baked Corn with Butter- 2 ears of boiled corn
- 1 Tbsp melted butter
- 1 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- A pinch of dried parsley flakes (adjust to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the star of our easy baked corn with butter: 2 ears of boiled corn. Cut each ear into 3 sections, yielding 6 pieces in total. This makes them easy to hold and eat.
Step 2
Next, measure out the grated Parmesan cheese to add a rich flavor. For the butter, gently melt it in the microwave for about 3 seconds until it’s soft and pourable. Be careful not to overheat it, as it can burn quickly.
Step 3
Now it’s time to work some magic on the corn! Turn each corn piece and evenly brush it with the melted butter. Then, generously sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese all over, followed by a light dusting of parsley flakes for a lovely aroma. Baking this in an air fryer or oven will give it a wonderfully crispy texture.
Step 4
If using an air fryer, preheat it to 180°C (350°F). Place the buttered corn pieces inside and bake for 15 minutes on each side, turning them halfway through, for a total of 30 minutes until golden brown. If using a conventional oven, preheat to 180°C (350°F) and bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the surface is a beautiful golden brown. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
Step 5
Voila! Your incredibly simple and delicious baked corn with butter is ready, boasting a rich buttery aroma and a savory cheesy taste. Enjoy it while it’s warm for the best flavor experience. This recipe is perfect for a kids’ snack, a movie night treat, or a delightful appetizer – give it a try!
