Air Fryer Soft Boiled Eggs
Servings: 4
Prep Time: 1 minute
Cook Time: 10-11 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
4 large eggs
Ice water (for cooling)
Instructions:
Preheat the Air Fryer:
Preheat your air fryer to 270°F (130°C) for about 3 minutes. Preheating ensures even cooking and the perfect texture for your eggs.
Air Fry the Eggs:
Place the eggs directly into the air fryer basket, spacing them apart to allow air to circulate properly.
Air fry for 10-11 minutes. The whites should be fully set while the yolks remain soft and jammy. Depending on your air fryer, the time may need slight adjustment to achieve the perfect consistency.
Cool the Eggs:
Once the cooking time is up, carefully transfer the eggs into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them sit for 5 minutes. This not only cools the eggs but also makes them much easier to peel.
Peel and Serve:
After the eggs have cooled, tap them gently on a hard surface to crack the shells, then roll them to loosen. Peel carefully, especially around the soft center.
Serve immediately while still warm or chill for later use.
Pro Tips:
Adjust Cooking Time: Depending on your air fryer and egg size, you may need to slightly adjust the cooking time. Start with 10 minutes and adjust as needed for the perfect texture.
Easy Peeling: Peeling is easiest when the eggs are well-chilled. Let them sit in ice water for a few minutes after cooking to make this process smoother.
Egg Size: Larger eggs may need an additional minute, while smaller eggs may require a little less time. Consistency is key, so try to use eggs that are similar in size.
Prevent Cracking: To minimize cracking, make sure the eggs aren’t overcrowded and have room to move slightly in the air fryer basket.
Serving Suggestions:
Breakfast: Serve with buttered toast or avocado for a simple, classic breakfast.
Ramen: Add these soft-boiled eggs to a bowl of ramen for that perfect creamy yolk texture.
Snack: Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and paprika for a quick protein-packed snack. Air Fryer Soft Boiled Eggs
