Air Fryer Boiled Eggs

You read that correctly. Boiled eggs, in the air fryer. Technology, eh?

Ingredients

• 4 large eggs

• Ice cubes

• Cold water

Instructions

1. Preheat your air fryer to 270°F (about 132°C) for 3 minutes.

2. Gently place the eggs in the air fryer basket using a spoon or tongs.

3. Cook the eggs at 270°F (about 132°C) for 13-15 minutes depending on your desired doneness — 13 minutes for soft boiled and 15 minutes for medium to hard boiled.

4. While the eggs are cooking, prepare an ice bath by filling a bowl with ice cubes and cold water.

5. Once cooking time is complete, transfer the eggs immediately into the ice bath and let them sit for about 5-10 minutes to stop further cooking.

6. Peel the eggs carefully, season with salt and pepper, and serve as a snack or in salads.

Notes

• For softer yolks, reduce cooking time by 1 minute. Experiment with timing to find your perfect egg consistency.

• Add a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of hot sauce on sliced eggs for an extra flavour kick.
