    Air Fryer Green Bean casserole has to be one of my all-time favorite holiday time Thanksgiving side dishes. I love that flavor of the green beans with the cream of mushroom soup and the french fried onions. This can also be made in your oven but the air fryer makes this so quick and easy.

    I love the golden brown top of Green Bean Casserole. I add a bit of Parmesan when cooking and in the final step.

    Green bean casserole was made popular by Campbell Soup company in 1955. This recipe has basically become a staple of holiday dinners like Thanksgiving.

    If you were looking for other side dishes also for holidays my Parmesan Balsamic Brussel Sprouts is also a delicious side dish.

    Ingredients

    I used fresh green beans for this recipe and I steamed them a few minutes in some boiling water. But the fresh green beans can be replaced with canned green beans. Frozen green beans can also be used but thaw them beforehand.

    I like to use the soy sauce instead of a bunch of salt. I think the soy sauce gives a great umami flavor. I used fresh green beans for this recipe. But this can easily be replaced with two cans of cut green beans which is about 4 cups.
    • Green Beans (Fresh, Frozen, or Canned)
    • Parmesan Cheese or Cheddar Cheese
    • Cream of Mushroom Soup (Condensed Cream of Mushroom)
    • Milk or Half and Half
    • Soy Sauce

    See recipe card for quantities.

    How to Make Air Fryer Green Bean Casserole

    I assume that you have an air fryer or air fryer oven to make this recipe. I used my Cosori Air Fryer Oven to make this but you can use a basket style air fryer as well. any baking dish that fits in your air fryer basket is fine.

    Note: It does not matter what brand of air fryer you have. I have 2 air fryers and this comes out great. If you are making Ninja Foodi green bean casserole the process is the same. I will also have instructions below on how to make the green bean casserole in oven.

    Make sure everything is mixed well and mix in a bit of the french fried onions and a little bit of the Parmesan cheese. Place in the baking dish in an even layer.

    Step 1 – In a large bowl or directly in the baking dish mix all the ingredients. Are usually mix all the wet ingredients in the bottom of the baking dish. I save the Parmesan cheese and the green beans for last. This way you can mix the Cream of Mushroom soup, soy sauce, and milk together easily.

    I used a baking dish that was 1 1/2 quarts in size. I then added a can of Cream of Mushroom condensed soup, 1/2 cup of milk ( I used half and half). I added 1 teaspoon of soy sauce
    (low sodium) for some Umami flavor then added about 2/3 cup of the french fried onions. I added in a couple of pinches of Parmesan Cheese. I then added the green beans.

    Toss everything to coat and then air fried for 12 to 15 minutes with the air fryer preheated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

    Tip: Air Fryers vary in power. My oven air fryer is not as hot as my basket style air fryer so an adjustment of a few minutes of cooking time can be necessary. I just test them with a fork to see if they are tender to my liking before the final step.

    I like to Top the green bean casserole with a little bit of Parmesan to give it a salty, nutty flavor and I think it makes it a bit more golden brown in the end.

    Step 2 – Remove the green bean casserole from the air fryer if necessary and top with the remaining onions and more Parmesan Cheese. I used about 1/2 cup of Parmesan in total. Return the casserole to the air fryer for 5 minutes bake time and check to see if it is golden brown. Bake in 5 minute increments until browned to your liking.

    The top of the Green Bean Casserole gets beautiful golden brown when completed. Test green beans for doneness to your liking with a fork.

    Step 3 – Remove from the air fryer and let sit a few minutes as this green bean casserole recipe will continue to brown a bit. I always let it cool down for awhile.

    This is such an easy air fryer recipe to make to accompany a Thanksgiving dinner. It is so easy that this can be made last minute any time of the year.

    Substitutions
