Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs

September 20, 2018 by Amber 18 Comments

The airy fryer is making egg cooking way easier and more convenient than traditional methods. These Air Fryer “Hard Boiled” Eggs takes 20 minutes without any water to boil or pan to clean.

There can be some adjustment needed on the time and temperature depending on what air fryer you have. I use the Midea Air Fryer. Here are some other options below if you are in the market to purchase one.

Hard boiled eggs are a go-to food for me and my kids in the morning to get some protein without eating too much. We all have a hard time eating in the mornings so eggs are perfect. Eat after a workout or put on salad for lunch. Lot’s of possibilities.

Place 4-6 eggs into the air fryer basket. Close and put temperature to 275 degrees. Place the timer on 20 minutes and let cook. If you like the eggs less done, reduce time by 2 minutes.

I recommend testing out a couple batches with a single egg to get a feel for your air fryer and how you like your eggs. Note that the more eggs you put into the air fryer, the more time you will have to add for them all to cook thoroughly.

When the timer goes off, place the eggs into a bowl full of ice and water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, peel and eat. I like just a pinch of salt and cracked pepper on mine!

I didn’t know you could do eggs in an air fryer!!! I love hard boiled eggs and have the hardest time getting them to peel. I knew you could do them in a pressure cooker but never heard of doing them in the air fryer! LOVE!!!

  I have heard that if you let the eggs sit in the fridge a few days before cooking then they will peel easier… something about the acidity.

Didn’t work for me at same temperature & time. Had to throw them away. Shell & egg white stuck together.

  There are a few reasons that the white sticks to the shell. Could be the age of the egg… and make sure to dunk them in ice water or run under cold water right after cooking.

Can you use an air fryer oven to cook eggs?

  You are talking about one of those power air fryer ovens, right? I have never used one so I’m not sure but I think it is essentially the same thing. Pop a couple eggs in there for 10 minutes and see what happens.
