Yay! So glad you love it!! 🙂
With the above instructions, does the yolk still stay a bit runny? I like it like that.
Yes! They will still have some run to them 🙂
So good! Thanks for this easy and delicious breakfast recipe.
You are so welcome. I am glad you liked it!
Nice but the cooking temp u say 300. Is it Celsius or Fahrenheit.,????
Fahrenheit!
"No preheating needed with this delicious and easy Air Fryer breakfast recipe! "
1. Preheat the Air Fryer to 330 degrees
So which is it? Preheat or not!?
Here's the thing. Some air fryers like the Ninja 5 in 1 requires you to preheat. The Cosori air fryer we use doesn't require you to preheat. So basically, if your style of air fryer doesn't require a preheat, then you don't have to do it! However, if it does, you want to preheat the air fryer to the 330 degrees Fahrenheit temperature suggested. Hope that helps! 🙂
