Air fryer poached eggs are a new amazing way to cook poached eggs without babysitting the stove. They are quick and easy to make and are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional fried eggs. Plus, there’s no messy water to clean up afterward.
PREPRATION TIME:
PREP TIME3 minutes
COOK TIME5 minutes
TOTAL TIME5 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
2 large eggs
Oil spray. I use Ghee Butter.
Salt & pepper to taste
6 Tablespoons hot water
Toast (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS:
Preheat the air fryer to 350 °F (177 °C) for 3 minutes (air fry/air crisp setting)
When the “ready” timer beeps, spritz some oil into each ramekin and rub the oil with your finger around the edges. You can use the food brush instead.
Pour 3-4 tablespoons of hot water
Gently crack an egg into each ramekin
Place ramekins directly in the air fryer basket/tray.
Cook for 5-7 minutes. The timing will depend on the preferred doneness of the yolk. Please refer to the poached eggs cooking chart below.
Once cooked, remove the ramekins from the air fryer.
Then, using a rubber spatula, gently pry the eggs out of the ramekins.
If the eggs are stuck, you can try running a knife around the edge of the ramekins.
Once the eggs are loose, transfer them gently to a plate, or put them on prepared toast. Season with salt and pepper to your liking and enjoy!
