Instructions
- Air Fry the Eggs: Preheat air fryer to 270°F (or 275°F) for 2-3 minutes.* Place eggs in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 12-13 minutes for soft-boiled eggs and 15-16 minutes for hard-boiled eggs.
- Add to Ice Bath: While the eggs are cooking, prepare an ice bath. Load a large bowl with ice and then fill with water until it is ¾ full. Once eggs are done cooking, immediately immerse them in the ice water bath for 5-10 minutes, or until cool to the touch.
- Peel the Eggs: Start by hitting the rounded bottom end of the egg on a hard surface and then rolling until it has cracks all over it. Be careful not to apply too much pressure when rolling so that you don’t break the egg. Begin peeling the egg at the rounded end. If you have difficulty, run it under cold running water while you peel to help loosen up the membrane. Repeat with the remaining eggs.
Notes
- If your air fryer does not go below 300°F, simply set it to this temperature and cook eggs for 1-2 minutes less.
- Prep Ahead Instructions:
- You can hard-boil eggs several days before you will use them. Cooked eggs will keep in the fridge.
- Storage Directions:
- Unpeeled hard-boiled eggs can be stored in the fridge for up to 6-7 days. If they have been peeled, use within 4-5 days. It is not recommended to freeze hard-boiled eggs as the taste and texture will not be good once thawed.
- Recipe Tips:
- Preheat the air fryer. Be sure to allow a few minutes for the airfryer to heat up in order to fully cook them.
- Keep 'em cold. Take the eggs straight from the refrigerator for the most predictable timing.
- Check the time. Depending on how runny the yolks need to be, cook the eggs for more or less time.
- Put 'em on ice. Have the ice bath ready so the eggs can cool down immediately after cooking.
- Running water. If the shell is being difficult, try peeling the egg under running water.
