Tired of the guesswork and finicky water baths when hard boiling eggs? Say hello to the easiest, most consistent method: hard boil eggs in the air fryer! Forget watching a pot and praying for no green rings. This method is virtually foolproof.
Simply place your desired number of eggs (straight from the fridge!) in the air fryer basket. Cook at 270°F (132°C) for 15-17 minutes, depending on your desired yolk consistency. For slightly soft yolks, go for 15 minutes; for fully cooked yolks, opt for 17.
Once cooked, immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath for at least 5 minutes. This stops the cooking process and makes peeling a breeze! Seriously, the shells practically slide off.
Air fryer hard boiled eggs are perfect for meal prep, salads, deviled eggs, or a quick and healthy snack. Give it a try – you'll never go back to boiling water again!
