Ingredients
- 6 eggs, at room temperature
- Toast, to serve (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer: Heat the air fryer to 180°C (356°F) to ensure an even cooking environment before placing the eggs inside.
- Cook the eggs: Arrange the eggs in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook them for 6-6½ minutes for a runny yolk, 7 minutes for a jammy yolk, or 9 minutes for a hard set yolk depending on your preference.
- Cool the eggs: Immediately transfer the hot eggs to a bowl of ice-cold water to halt the cooking process and make peeling easier.
- Serve: Peel the eggs or serve them in egg cups alongside toast for a complete and satisfying meal.
Notes
- Using eggs at room temperature helps achieve more even cooking.
- The ice bath stops the eggs from overcooking and aids in peeling.
- Cooking times may vary slightly depending on the air fryer model and egg size.
- Serve with toast or your preferred breakfast sides for a fuller meal.
