🥚 Air Fryer Boiled Eggs (Soft, Medium & Hard)
Ingredients
- Eggs (as many as you want, as long as they fit in a single layer)
- Bowl of ice water (for cooling)
🔥 Instructions
1. Preheat the Air Fryer (optional but best for consistency)
Preheat air fryer to 270°F (130°C)
If your air fryer runs hot, use 260°F.
2. Add the Eggs
Place eggs in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
No water needed.
3. Cook Time Guide
Soft-Boiled
- 9–10 minutes → set whites, runny yolk
Medium-Boiled
- 11–12 minutes → jammy yolk
Hard-Boiled
- 14–15 minutes → fully set yolk
(Larger eggs may need 1 extra minute.)
4. Ice Bath
Immediately transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water for 5 minutes.
This stops cooking and makes peeling easier.
5. Peel & Serve
Gently crack and roll eggs on the counter, then peel under running water if needed.
⭐ Tips for the Best Air Fryer Eggs
- Older eggs peel more easily than very fresh eggs.
- If shells get brown spots, lower the temperature by 10–20 degrees.
- Don’t overcrowd the basket—air needs to circulate.
