NOTE: I make this recipe in my Cosori 5.8 qt. air fryer or 6.8 quart air fryer. Depending on your air fryer, size and wattages, cooking time may need to be adjusted 1-2 minutes.

Variations

Change the filling ingredients – The classic filling of deviled eggs is delicious, but you can always swap out that creamy yolk mixture for something else. Fill the white halves with guacamole, hummus, or your favorite filling for this delicious quick snack.

How to Store

Air fryer eggs are best served fresh. This doesn’t mean that you can’t store them for later, but I love them fresh from the air fryer.

If you need to store leftovers, make sure to let the eggs cool down all the way and store them in an airtight container. They must be kept in the fridge and eaten within 1-2 days.

FAQs

What are good crunchy toppings to add to air fryer eggs?

I think that adding crushed pork rinds to the top of these eggs is perfection! It’s a great way to add a crunch. Don’t forget to dab a little hot sauce on top, too!

What is the easiest way to fill hard boiled eggs?

You can fill a piping bag with the creamy yolk filling and pipe it into the perfect hard-boiled eggs, or you can use a spoon and add, too. However you want to fill these perfect eggs, do so.
