How do you make gluten-free air fryer corn casserole?
If you need this to be made gluten-free, just switch the flour for a gluten-free all-purpose flour. This needs to be a 1:1 swap.
I typically use Better Batter, but King Arthur and Cup 4 Cup or also great choices.
Is Corn Casserole supposed to be gooey?
Corn Casserole is not going to be totally solid, so it will be slightly gooey but it should also hold its shape well. If it is soupy, then you would want to add some additional flour to thicken it up.
What type of pan is needed for Air Fryer Corn Casserole?
This dish is made in a 9-inch round cake pan and then placed in the basket of the air fryer.
Any 8 or 9-inch pan can be used but it has to fit in your machine, each machine is different so you will want to use one that fits your particular machine.
Can you make Ninja Foodi Corn Casserole?
This recipe can be made in ANY Ninja Foodi that has the AIR CRISP or AIR FRYER functions.
This recipe was made in a Ninja Foodi Multi-Cooker, it uses the wire rack and then the pan is sitting on top of the wire rack in the lowest position.
Tips for Preparing:
When preparing this recipe, everything will be added to a bowl and mixed up then poured into the greased pan.
It’s important to remember that the butter may harden up slightly when mixed with frozen corn. This is okay and it will melt right back down when cooking.
This is mixed the best with a Danish dough whisk or a wooden spoon.
Variations for Air Fryer Corn Casserole:
- Make it Spicy – Add red pepper flakes and chili powder to add some spice to the dish.
- Make it Kid-Friendly – Add Colby Jack cheese into the mixture when it’s almost cooked and let it melt until golden brown.
- Choose your Own – This dish can be spun in a variety of ways, add Italian Seasoning for an Italian flare, or keep it simple with some garlic and onion powder.
