Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs
Description
The recipe uses an air fryer to cook large eggs by placing them directly in the basket without preheating. The cooking temperature is set low at 250°F, helping avoid overcooked whites and green rings around yolks common with boiling. Timing gives control over desired yolk consistency—shorter for a slightly soft center, longer for fully hard-boiled.
Cooling eggs immediately under cold water stops cooking and eases peeling. Additional seasoning like salt, black pepper, or everything bagel seasoning can be added after peeling to taste.
This approach allows for easy preparation without boiling water and works regardless of cooking one egg or a dozen in the air fryer at once.
Ingredients
- 4 egg large
- salt (black pepper, everything bagel seasoning, optional)
Instructions
- Place the eggs in the air fryer basket and cook 250F 15 minutes for a softer yolk, or 17 minutes for a firmer yolk (time may vary depending on the make and model of your air fryer).
- Run under cold water and peel right away.
