  • Easy & Quick: Using an air fryer makes an easier cooking process and it’s a great way to quickly boil eggs for an easy egg recipe like egg salad, tuna salad, Cobb Salad, and deviled eggs.

  • No fuss meal prep: Whether for a quick breakfast or a weekly meal prep, this easy air fryer recipe is a creative way to give you perfect eggs

Ingredients & Tools Needed

This air fryer hard-boiled eggs recipe requires to simple “ingredients”:

  • An air fryer: As with my air fryer bacon tutorial, I’m using the Ninja Foodi. It’s my favorite air fryer (and small kitchen appliance). Besides superior crisping compared to other air fryers, it works well to cook food evenly without the need to preheat.
  • Eggs: I’m using large eggs, but you can use whichever size you prefer.

Be sure to see the recipe card at the bottom of the post for full instructions on how to get perfect results.

How to Make Air Fryer Boiled Eggs at 300

  • Place eggs into the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook them at 300 degrees for a cooking time of 11-15 minutes (photo 1).
  • Use tongs to add the cooked eggs to an ice water bath (a bowl of ice water) for 5 minutes (photo 2).
  • Afterwards, peel and then discard the egg shells.

How Long to Boil Eggs

Whether you like soft-boiled eggs with slightly runny yolk or the perfect hard boiled eggs with firm yolk, how long you cook your eggs is ultimately up to you.

But, the boiled eggs 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, which is my personal favorite air fryer. For me, it’s the easiest way to boil eggs, rather than boiling them on a stove top. If you are using a different air fryer (like an air fryer oven), I recommend testing one egg to determine the best cook time for you. You may also need to preheat your air fryer for 1-2 minutes.
  • 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 before 10 minutes.
  • Give the eggs space: though it might be tempting to pack as many eggs in your air fryer as possible, they need space. The hot air being able to circulate will allow your eggs to boil.

How to Store Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs

The best way to store any leftover hard boil eggs is in an airtight container for the next day (up to 5 days).

How long should you cook eggs in an air fryer?

I prefer 13-15 minutes as I find that they are easiest to peel. I also enjoy hard boiled eggs.

Can you cook soft boiled eggs in the air fryer?

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.

What is the best way to peel hard boiled eggs?

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.
