Expert Tips
- An ice bath is one of the best ways to get the eggs to peel easily since the air fryer doesn’t use water.
- The eggs will be very hot when they're done cooking. Let them sit in the air fryer basket for a couple of minutes before taking them out. You can also use tongs if you want to get them in the ice bath sooner.
- Since all air fryers cook a bit differently, I recommend experimenting with different cook times to find what’s perfect for you.
