Perfect Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs

Ingredients

Eggs

6, large

Salt

1 teaspoon (for seasoning)

Ice cubes

1 cup

Cold water

enough to fill the ice bath

Instructions

1. Place the eggs in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
2. Set the air fryer to 250°F (120°C). For medium-sized eggs, cook for 15 minutes; for large eggs, you may need an additional 1-2 minutes.
3. While the eggs are cooking, prepare an ice bath by filling a bowl with cold water and adding ice cubes.
4. Once the cooking time is up, carefully transfer the eggs to the ice bath using tongs or a slotted spoon. This will halt the cooking process and make peeling easier.
5. Let the eggs sit in the ice bath for at least 5 minutes.
6. Gently tap each egg on a hard surface to crack the shell, then peel off the shell under running cold water to help remove any stubborn bits.
7. Sprinkle a little salt on the eggs before serving for added flavor, or slice them to use in salads, sandwiches, or as deviled eggs.
