Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs
Enjoy perfectly cooked hard boiled eggs with minimal effort using your air fryer! This quick and energy-efficient method delivers consistently flawless results, ideal for busy mornings or meal prep.
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- Ice for the ice bath
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 270°F (132°C).
- Place the eggs in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not touch.
Cook the eggs for:
- 11–12 minutes for soft yolks
- 13–14 minutes for medium yolks
- 15–16 minutes for firm yolks
- Remove the eggs from the air fryer and transfer them to an ice bath immediately. Let them cool for 5–10 minutes.
- Gently tap each egg on the counter to crack the shell, then peel under running water for easier removal.
- Serve immediately or store in the fridge for later use.
Notes
- Use room-temperature eggs to prevent shells from cracking during cooking.
- An ice bath is crucial for halting the cooking process and making peeling easier.
- Store unpeeled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
