Savory Air Fryer Herb and Garlic Butter

This herb and garlic butter is the perfect way to add flavor to your favorite dishes. It's made with just a few simple ingredients and can be made in minutes. The result is a rich, flavorful butter that will take your meals to the next level.

I first developed this recipe when I was looking for a way to add some extra flavor to my steak. I had tried a few different recipes, but I wasn't happy with the results. They were either too bland or too greasy. So, I decided to experiment with my own recipe. I started with a base of unsalted butter and added some fresh herbs, garlic, salt, and pepper. I then cooked the butter in the air fryer until it was melted and bubbly. The result was a delicious, flavorful butter that was perfect for my steak. I've since used this butter on a variety of other dishes, including chicken, fish, and vegetables. It's a great way to add flavor to any meal.
