Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Start by washing the green and yellow beans thoroughly under cool water, then lightly pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
  2. Set up your dredging station by placing three shallow bowls in a row: one filled with flour, the second with beaten eggs, and the third with a mix of panko bread crumbs and grated Parmesan.
  3. Begin the coating process by taking a green bean and dipping it first into the flour, then moving it to the egg wash before rolling it in the panko-Parmesan mixture.
  4. Place the coated green beans in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not overlap. Preheat your air fryer to 380°F and arrange the beans inside.
  5. Cook them for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  6. Carefully remove the basket and check the green beans for crispiness. If needed, cook for an additional 1–2 minutes.
  7. Remove the beans from the air fryer and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces.
