Ingredient Notes:
Green beans – We prefer canned cut green beans, but the French style green beans will likely work too.
Cream Soup – Traditionally, cream of mushroom soup is used in green bean casserole. I use cream of chicken because we have a few mushroom haters in our family. Both work perfectly here, so use what your family likes.

Mix the casserole– Add your beans, cream of mushroom soup, shredded cheese, half of your fried onions, and soy sauce to a medium bowl and stir to combine. Add this mixture to a baking dish that fits in your air fryer. We used a 7″ baking dish for ours that came with our air fryer accessory kit.
Bake the casserole- Add your baking dish to the air fryer and cook for 5 minutes at 350 degrees F. At this point sprinkle your remaining fried onions over the casserole and cook for 3 more minutes.
FAQ:
Store your green bean casserole in a sealed dish in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Reheat in the air fryer, covered with foil, at 350 degrees for 5-10 minutes to rewarm.
This simple green bean casserole recipe was created by the Campbell’s test kitchen and was an instant hit. The savory flavors and creamy sauce paired with the crisp onions works well together. Our air fryer version makes it even faster and quicker, so you can enjoy green bean casserole as often as possible.
Cooking your casserole in the air fryer will help keep it more crisp than the oven already. So you are off to a good start! Serving fresh is always superior to reheating as well. In addition to that, using fresh beans, you could blanch them prior to proceeding with the recipe.

Bonnie Walls says
Can you reheat this in the air fryer if so how. I’m new to this air fryer
Karly Campbell says
I would probably reheat this in the microwave, but if you do reheat in the air fryer be sure to cover it to keep the top from getting too browned. I’d guess around 10 minutes at 350, depending on how much is left and if it’s straight from the fridge.
Lee Lichtenstein says
For this recipe, are you using condensed soup, and do you dilute it with water to regular strength before adding to the rest of ingredients? Also, if I used Cream of Celery Soup instead, would that make the final dish *too vegetable-ey* (if that is even a word)?
Karly says
Hi Lee! You don’t need to dilute the soup. Just use it straight from the can. I’ve never tried this cream of celery as I’m not a huge celery fan, so I can’t say how it will effect the taste. Should work fine otherwise though.
