Remove the husks and silks from the corn on the cobs if necessary. Place baking parchment in the basket of the air fryer.
Mix the chilli powder, garlic powder, paprika and olive oil. Use a brush to spread the mixture evenly over the corn on the cobs. If you have some leftover, you can pour them over the corn on the cobs while baking.
Place the corn on the cobs in the air fryer (baking parchment is recommended to avoid having to clean it afterwards).
Bake the corn on the cob until tender and golden brown in about 25 minutes at 180 degrees celsius, turning them over halfway through.
Season with salt and pepper and serve with a knob of butter. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy your dinner!
