Here’s a simple recipe for Air Fryer Poached Eggs – a quick and easy way to get perfectly poached eggs with the air fryer!
Ingredients
:
- Eggs (as many as you want to poach)
- Ramekins or small oven-safe bowls (one for each egg)
- Butter or oil spray (optional, for greasing)
- Water (a tablespoon or so for each ramekin)
- Salt and pepper (optional, for seasoning)
Instructions
:
Enjoy: Serve your poached eggs over toast, salads, or as a topping for other dishes!
Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 370°F (188°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
Prepare the Ramekins: Lightly grease each ramekin or small oven-safe bowl with a bit of butter or oil spray to prevent the eggs from sticking.
Add Water: Pour about 1 tablespoon of water into the bottom of each ramekin. This helps create steam, which is essential for poaching the eggs in the air fryer.
Crack the Eggs: Gently crack one egg into each ramekin, being careful not to break the yolk. You can crack multiple eggs if you have enough ramekins and room in your air fryer.
Air Fry the Eggs: Carefully place the ramekins in the air fryer basket. Cook for about 8-10 minutes at 370°F (188°C), depending on how runny or firm you like your egg yolks. For runnier yolks, aim for 8 minutes; for a firmer yolk, cook for 10 minutes.
Remove and Serve: Once done, carefully remove the ramekins from the air fryer. You can use a spoon to gently lift the poached eggs out. Season with salt and pepper, or any toppings you prefer.
