  • Author: Jake
  • Total Time: 9 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Description

A quick and easy recipe for perfectly cooked fried eggs using an air fryer, delivering a delicious breakfast or snack with minimal oil and fuss.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 tsp vegetable or sunflower oil
  • 2 eggs

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oil: Drizzle the oil into a heatproof dish or tin that fits inside your air fryer, such as a cake tin or individual ramekins. Place the dish in the air fryer and cook at 180°C (356°F) for 2 minutes to heat the oil.
  2. Cook the eggs: Crack the eggs into the preheated dish or tin. Return it to the air fryer and cook at 180°C for 4 to 8 minutes, depending on how runny or firm you prefer your yolks.
  3. Ensure even cooking: Since some air fryers may cook unevenly, turn the dish or tin halfway through the cooking time to ensure the eggs cook evenly on all sides.

Notes

  • Adjust cooking time based on your air fryer model and how you prefer your egg yolks.
  • Use a heatproof dish that fits comfortably inside your air fryer basket.
  • Vegetable or sunflower oil works best as they have a neutral flavor and high smoke points.
  • For easier cleanup, lightly grease the dish before adding oil to prevent sticking.
  • Check the eggs towards the end of cooking to avoid overcooking.
