Ingredients :

  • 12 large eggs
  • Water (for ice bath)

Method :

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 250°F (120°C).
  2. Arrange the eggs in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Do not overcrowd.
  3. Cook for 12 minutes.
  4. While the eggs are cooking, prepare an ice bath by filling a bowl with ice and water.
  5. Once the cooking time is complete, carefully transfer the eggs from the air fryer basket directly into the ice bath.
  6. Let the eggs cool in the ice bath for at least 5 minutes before peeling.

Recipe Notes :

  • Chef’s Tip: For easier peeling, use eggs that are a few days old rather than very fresh ones.
  • Variation: After cooking and cooling, you can peel and slice these eggs for egg salad or deviled eggs.
  • Storage: Store peeled or unpeeled hard-boiled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I prevent my air fryer hard-boiled eggs from cracking?

Using eggs that are not extremely fresh and not overcrowding the basket can help prevent cracking during cooking.

Can I cook more or fewer eggs at once?

Yes, adjust the cooking time slightly based on the number of eggs, but always ensure they are in a single layer for even cooking.

Why do I need to use an ice bath?

The ice bath quickly stops the cooking process, preventing the yolks from overcooking and making the eggs easier to peel.
