Air frying soft eggs is a quick and easy way to prepare a runny-yolked egg with a set egg white. Here’s a simple recipe for air fryer soft eggs:
Ingredients:
- Eggs (as many as you want to cook)
Instructions:
- Preheat Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 325°F (163°C).
- Prepare Eggs:
- Place the desired number of eggs at room temperature on the counter. This helps prevent the eggs from cracking during cooking.
- Place in Air Fryer Basket:
- Carefully place the eggs directly in the air fryer basket. Make sure they are in a single layer and not touching each other.
- Air Fry:
- Cook the eggs in the preheated air fryer for about 11-12 minutes for a runny yolk and set whites. Adjust the time based on your air fryer model and your desired level of doneness.
- Cool and Peel:
- Once the eggs are done, immediately transfer them to an ice water bath or run them under cold water for a few minutes to stop the cooking process. This also makes peeling the eggs easier.
- Peel Eggs:
- Gently tap the eggs on a hard surface to crack the shell, then peel the eggs under running water to help remove any remaining shell fragments.
- Season and Serve:
- Season the soft eggs with salt, pepper, or your favorite seasoning. Serve them whole, sliced, or on toast for a delicious and quick breakfast.
- Enjoy:
- Enjoy your air-fried soft eggs with a runny yolk and firm whites!
Air frying eggs is a convenient method, and it allows you to achieve the desired doneness without the need for boiling water. Adjust the cooking time to suit your preference for egg consistency.
