Make hard or soft boiled eggs without water in less than 15 minutes using this easy Ninja Foodi Air Fryer Eggs tutorial. Using an air fryer is a great way to quickly boil eggs for egg salad, tuna salad, Cobb Salad, and deviled eggs.
Ingredients & Tools Needed
These hard boiled eggs simply require two things: an air fryer and eggs.
As with my air fryer bacon tutorial, I’m using the Ninja Foodi. It’s my favorite air fryer and works well to cook food evenly without the need to preheat.
How to Make These
Add the eggs to the air fryer basket and cook them at 300 degrees for 11-15 minutes (photo 1).
Use tongs to add the cooked eggs to an ice water bath for 5 minutes (photo 2).
How Long to Cook the Eggs
How long you cook your eggs is ultimately up to you. But, the chart below will give you an idea of how they turn out in the Ninja Foodi at different cook times.
Top Cooking Tips & FAQs
- Not all air fryers are the same: This tutorial was specifically tested with the Ninja Foodi. If you are using a different air fryer, I recommend testing one egg to determine the best cook time for you.
- Cook for at least 10 minutes: I don’t recommend cooking these for less than 10 minutes as I found that the egg white does not set in that time.
I prefer 13-15 minutes as I find that they are easiest to peel. I also enjoy hard boiled eggs.
Yes! If you’re going for “Jammie” or soft boiled eggs, then 10-11 minutes will work. You can see the cook chart earlier in the post to see the difference in how it turns out.
Peeling eggs sometimes requires patience and often times I fail at it. But, I’ve found that the best way is to peel eggs with a spoon.
