Ingredients You'll Need

  • 2 ripe avocados

  • 4 large eggs

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Optional toppings: Salsa, Shredded Cheese, Crumbled Bacon, Hot Sauce



How to Prepare Air Fryer Avocado Eggs

  1. Begin by lining the air fryer basket with parchment paper, setting it aside for later use.

  2. Slice the avocados in half lengthwise, and carefully remove the pit. Use a spoon to gently scoop out some of the avocado flesh, creating a small well in each half. You can save the removed avocado for later use or enjoy it separately.

  3. Place the prepared avocado halves in the air fryer basket.

  4. Carefully crack one egg into each half of the avocado, ensuring that the yolk and whites are evenly distributed.

  5. Set your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and cook for 8-12 minutes, depending on your preference for egg doneness. Remember to check halfway through to monitor their progress. Don't be alarmed if the eggs splatter slightly due to the air flow.

  6. Season your avocado eggs with salt and pepper to taste.



Variations to Elevate Your Avocado Eggs

  • Avocado Toast: If you're in the mood for something different, consider spreading the creamy cooked avocado on toast and adding a sprinkle of Bagel seasoning. It's a quick and easy breakfast option that can be customized with your favorite ingredients.

  • Add Feta Cheese: Enhance the flavor profile by topping your fried eggs with crumbled feta cheese. This simple addition can transform your air fryer-baked eggs with avocado halves into a delightful culinary experience.

  • Make it Spicy: If you enjoy a bit of heat, try drizzling some sweet chili sauce over your avocado eggs for a spicy and satisfying flavor combination. Alternatively, you can skip the sweetness and opt for red pepper flakes to add some kick.

  • Pair with Other Breakfast Foods: Turn your meal into a hearty breakfast by serving your avocado eggs alongside hash browns, turkey bacon, or a fresh fruit salad.
