4 Ways to Cook Perfect Eggs in Your Air Fryer

First!

It just happens that I had a little egg-periment (HAHA) myself too! I wanted to find ways to have nice breakfast without much work, because I rather not eat anything if I need to do stuff for it in the morning.

I used ramekins too, thinking that it would give me a much more even result and, and it does. For the base egg mixture I used Helen Rennie's recipe, If someone reads my comment the day I post it it's in her latest video as well. She uses milk and flour, but for a different reason I won't get into. I used it because straight eggs stick like glue and blows up in your face and eggs can get quite hot, but this mixture won't. 135 °C in my air fryer, with 4 very specific ramekins from Tesco, for 20 minutes. Leave them cool in the air fryer if you can. (but open it up right away, because they puff up beautiful, you need to see it!) my basket is 20*20 or 22*22 I can't remember.

Hi Clara, I've yet to try eggs in my A/F but I've hit on a novel way with poached eggs. I use greased microwave mini steam pudding containers, just like your non stick moulds, no faffing about with spirit vinegar swirling in water, load the egg into the greased mould, drop it into rolling boiling water for required time and I get a perfect result every time. It's saved me buying silicone moulds. Job done. Cheers DougT

my fav is the slice of buttered white, use a cup to cut out a circle, drop of oil in the hole when you lay down the bread, and then crack the egg into the hole. 4-5 mins @200 and heaven.

Could you please tell me where to get the square baking tins from

Hi Clara, you have added the same link for the Square Tins as for the Pudding Basins

Eggs in an air fryer…. that’s witchcraft!! Great, enjoyable, content as always 🎉

What was the time and temperature for the poached egg?

Thank you for this video! Can you tell me where the non-stick tins are from, please? 😊

Oooh, I will have to give my favorite dish shakshuka a go in the air fryer now! Thanks for the information Clare, great video as usual :) :)

Wow so much easier than using a frying pan 😂

Its quicker on my induction hob and less washing up.
Just saying......

Just bought 6" tins, thanks for the recommendation

thanks clara for taking time to show us btw your looking lovely

The difference between the one cooked in the pudding basin and the one in the silicon bowl was probably because the pudding basin would get hot but the silicon bowl would not so no heat transfer.

Weighing the eggs is very kinky 😇

Fried egg 10 mins in airfryer or 2 mins in a frying pan!!!
Scrambled eggs looked like rubber
Poached eggs 1min in a ramekin of hot water in the microwave🙄

I'm looking into getting a food sealing machine. Would love to see you do a review on them

Just Fry an egg on a hob in a pan with a bit of lard.

It is much easier using conventional methods for most of these. With conventional methods, you can check “doneness”, and adjust cooking time accordingly.

Alternative to foil ?

Why? Really, why bother? All these eggs would have cooked better and quicker with the traditional methods!

I have a tiny sandwich maker, flat base, £5 does perfect fried eggs, scrambled, omlette 3 mins. Non-stick. 3 egg, egg poacher, water level determines soft medium hard, would not attempt using an Air Blower. Ps check out the cosori 26qt ceramic airfryer oven, has a hotplate at the base leave door open and put a frying pan on the bottom burner.

Many thanks for taking the time and effort to make the video. It really helps us new to air frying a lot. And a BIG thumbs👍 up.

Thanks for all the research you put into this. 🥰 Regards from Australia 🦘🇦🇺

What a waste of time, such eggsaguration. Get yourself a pan

No

What were the settings for the poached eggs please.

Not worth the effort in air frier, use a frying pan instead

Does this fit in a ninja300 as I measured it and it seems a tight fit?

I've just started to do boiled eggs in my air fryer, i've found for a soft boiled egg it takes 7 minutes on 200 and it's perfect. I have a cosori dual blaze so when i do a fried egg i take the crisper out and put some oil in the bottom and crack an egg in for 3 minutes on 180 and it's perfect, the top is the same as if you had used a frying pan. My last air fryer had a basket instead of a crisper plate so i had to do them in a tin. They never turned out right. What i like about the cosori dual blaze it's so easy to clean, especially compared to having to clean a gas hob, grids, splash back and extract fan as i can't stand a dirty cooker hob. It's a no brainer really. Thank for the work you put into it

Thank you! I needed this right now😂

I have just cooked a poached egg to perfection using this method. Although, I have the AF300 model and a square tin will not fit inside, but I did use the metal pudding dish. I placed the pudding dish into the air fryer using the tongs from my halogen oven and removed the same way. However, on trying to drain the water using a slotted spoon, gravity got the better of me and the egg fell into the sink. It was fine and I still ate it. I will use a foil dish next time to help me get it out safely.

You can do all that in a microwave in half the cooking times

I did 170 for 7 minutes like you said, and it came out still raw 😅

`What was the setting and time for the poached eggs please?

Really not worth the effort however 7 min boiled is useful.

You forgot to tell us the time and temperature for poached eggs
