Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) or prepare an air fryer by setting it to 375°F (190°C).
Rinse and pat dry the baby corn pieces. If using fresh baby corn, trim the ends as needed.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until a smooth seasoning mix forms.
Add the baby corn pieces into the bowl and toss until each piece is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Arrange the seasoned baby corn pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, or place them in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, or air fry for 15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. The baby corn should be lightly charred and crispy.
Remove the baby corn ribs from the oven or air fryer. Let them cool slightly.
Optional: Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges for a zesty kick.
Enjoy your Keto Spicy Corn Ribs as a low-carb snack or side dish!
