🥚 Air Fryer Hard-Boiled Eggs

6

Making hard-boiled eggs in the air fryer is quick, easy, and doesn’t require boiling water!

Ingredients

• 6–8 large eggs (or as many as fit in your air fryer basket in a single layer)

Instructions

1. Preheat your air fryer to 135°C (270°F) for 3 minutes (optional but helps with consistent results).
2. Place the eggs directly in the air fryer basket, leaving a little space between each one.
3. Cook according to your preferred doneness:
   • Soft-boiled: 9–10 minutes
   • Jammy: 11–12 minutes
   • Medium: 13–14 minutes
   • Hard-boiled: 15–17 minutes
4. Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water for 5–10 minutes.
5. Peel and enjoy!

Tips for Easy Peeling

• Use eggs that are a few days old rather than very fresh.
• Chill the eggs completely in the ice bath before peeling.
• Gently crack the shell all over and peel under cool running water.

Storage

• Unpeeled hard-boiled eggs: Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
• Peeled eggs: Store in an airtight container and use within 3–5 days.

Serving Ideas

• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Slice onto avocado toast or salads.
• Make egg salad.
• Enjoy as a high-protein snack.

Note: Air fryer temperatures can vary by model, so your first batch may need an extra 1–2 minutes to achieve your preferred level of doneness.
