Equipment
- Air fryer – basket-style works best for even crisping
- Mixing bowls – for flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs
- Tongs – to handle beans without losing the coating
- Measuring cups and spoons – for accuracy
- Baking sheet – handy if you prep the beans ahead of time
Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh green beans trimmed
- 2 large eggs beaten
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Trim and pat dry the green beans.
- Place flour in one bowl, eggs in another, and panko with salt and pepper in a third.
- Coat beans in flour, then dip in egg, then coat with breadcrumbs until well covered.
- Place beans in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Lightly spray with oil.
- Cook at 375°F for 8–10 minutes, shaking halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Double-coat for extra crunch by dipping beans in egg and panko twice.
- Add garlic powder, onion powder, or smoked paprika to the panko for more flavor.
- Parmesan in the breadcrumbs = cheesy green bean fries you’ll love.
- Best eaten fresh — leftovers reheat well in the air fryer but lose some crisp.
