Description
A small-dish green bean casserole with creamy mushroom sauce and a golden fried-onion topping, cooked entirely in the air fryer.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces trimmed fresh green beans, cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 1/3 cups crispy fried onions, divided
Instructions
- Blanch the beans: Microwave or simmer the green beans with a splash of water for 4 to 5 minutes until bright green and just tender; drain thoroughly.
- Mix the sauce: Stir the mushroom soup, milk, soy sauce, and black pepper together in a bowl.
- Assemble: Lightly oil a 7-inch air-fryer-safe dish. Fold in the beans and half of the fried onions, then spread evenly.
- Air fry covered: Cover the dish securely with foil and air fry at 340°F (171°C) for 12 minutes.
- Add the topping: Carefully remove the foil, stir once, and scatter the remaining fried onions over the surface.
- Brown and rest: Air fry uncovered for 5 to 8 minutes until bubbling and golden. Rest 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use an air-fryer-safe dish with room for airflow around it. Secure foil so the fan cannot lift it, and watch the onion topping closely near the end.
