Instructions
Instructions
- Place 6 large eggs in a single layer in the air fryer basket. If the basket can't hold all 6 without stacking, cook in batches.
- Set the air fryer to 250°F and cook for 17 minutes for each batch.
- During the last 2 minutes of cooking, prepare an ice bath: pour 3 cups water into a medium or large mixing bowl and add 8 to 9 ice cubes.
- When the cooking cycle finishes, use kitchen tongs to transfer the hot eggs immediately into the ice bath.
- Let the eggs sit in the ice bath for 8 to 10 minutes.
- Remove an egg, gently tap and roll it against the side of the bowl to crack the shell, then peel. Repeat with the remaining eggs—the shells should come off easily.
Equipment
- Air Fryer
- Mixing Bowl
- Kitchen tongs
Notes
If you want softer eggs, decrease the time. The cooking time varies when it comes to the size of eggs, freshness, and the model of your air fryer. Test it with one or two eggs before cooking a large batch.
You can store hard-boiled eggs in your fridge for up to 1 week.
If your air fryer does not go below 300 degrees F, try different settings than “air fry”. Many times the “bake” setting will let you set the temperature to 250 degrees.
