Ingredients
- Eggs (as many as you can fit in a single layer)
- Kosher salt and ground black pepper (optional)
Instructions
- Air Fry: Place the eggs in the air fryer basket and cook at 250°F for 15 minutes (softer yolks) to 17 minutes (firmer yolks).
- Cool: Immediately plunge the eggs into an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
- Peel: Tap the eggs with a spoon to crack them, then submerge them in the ice bath again. The shell will peel off easily.
