Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs are an easy way to cook eggs without boiling water. The eggs cook right in the air fryer, then go into an ice bath so they’re ready to peel and enjoy.
I like this method when I need several hard-boiled eggs at once for breakfast, egg salad, deviled eggs, or meal prep.

How to Make Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs
Air Fry: Place the eggs in the air fryer basket and cook at 275°F according to your preferred doneness.
Soft: 9 minutes Medium: 10–11 minutes Hard: 12 minutes
Cool: Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath for about 5 minutes.
Peel: Remove from the ice water, gently crack the shells, and peel.
Tips I Found Helpful 💙
- Use an ice bath: It stops the eggs from continuing to cook and helps with peeling.
- Test one first: Air fryers cook differently, so you may need to adjust the time slightly.
- Don’t overcrowd: Leave some space around the eggs for air to circulate.
