Can you really hard boil eggs in an air fryer?

Yes! 250°F for 15 minutes followed by an ice bath produces perfectly cooked eggs.

Do air fryer eggs peel easily?

The ice bath is key — it causes the shell to contract and separate from the egg white.

What about soft boiled eggs in the air fryer?

Cook at 250°F for 10-11 minutes for a soft, runny yolk.
