Some air fryers cook more evenly when preheated, so check your manufacturer’s instructions and adjust cooking time if needed.
If you’re using canned green beans, drain them thoroughly to prevent the casserole from becoming too watery.
For fresh green beans, blanch them in boiling water for 3-5 minutes until tender-crisp, then drain and pat dry before mixing with the other ingredients.
Stir the casserole halfway through the cooking time to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
When adding the crispy fried onions, keep an eye on the air fryer during the last 2-3 minutes to avoid over-browning.
Enhance the flavor by mixing in a splash of soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
