This was perfect for Thanksgiving. I’m making them again for Christmas.
cant wait to try the recipe Thanks
These were added to my Thanksgiving menu last and I’m gonna add it to our Christmas menu this month. Came out great.
I like onions and bacon in my green beans. Would we cook bacon and onions then add to AF or could we do all together? Thanks.
Hi Maggie, we would slightly pre-cook the bacon first for about 3-4 minutes, then add the chopped onions and green beans. Stir to coat the bacon drippings over the onions and green beans, then air fry based on the directions. Hope this helps!
I’m really glad I could cook these green beans in the air fryer. They make a great veggie side dish.
I love green beans and I love my air fryer! Putting the two together was pure yumminess!
Seriously the best green beans recipe ever! My green beans came out to perfection!
