Preheat the air fryer to 400F.
Trim the ends of the green beans.
1 lb green beans
Spray the green beans with olive oil and sprinkle the spices on them.
½ teaspoon black pepper, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon olive oil, ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
Rub the spices all over the green beans.
Arrange in a single row in the air fryer.
Air fry for 8 minutes, shaking the basket halfway.
Add 1-2 extra minutes if you want it extra crispy.

You can grate some parmesan cheese on the green beans for some extra flavor.
Make sure you dry your fresh green beans before air frying so they crisp up nicely.
Add chili powder, red pepper flakes, or cayenne pepper for some heat. If you’re not a fan of spicy food, you can leave them out.
Be sure to taste the green beans before air frying to determine if they are seasoned to your liking.
Make sure to place the green beans in a single layer, and don’t overcrowd the basket.
For extra crunchy green beans, dip them in an egg mixture with almond flour before air-frying. Almond flour is a low-carb substitute for all-purpose flour or panko breadcrumbs.
