I love not having to wait for the water to boil and not having to wash the pot. I just place my eggs in the air fryer and in 15 minutes they're hard-boiled.

I had doubts but followed the instructions exactly as stated. Eggs turned out amazing. Tried it again and added an additional minute. Second time they were even better. Love that I don't have to wait for water to boil. I even accidently cracked a triangle in the shell on one egg and placed the eggshell back on the egg and baked it anyhow and it came out perfectly.

I will make this again, but as written it did not work in my fryer. Eggs were barely soft-boiled, almost raw. I put them in a ramekin and microwaved myself some scrambled eggs. I will try at least 20 minutes next time. Read More

It worked very well. I put the eggs in an ice bath for about 10 minutes after they were done. They peeled easily and neatly. It exceeded my expectations. Read More

This is my new hard boiled egg recipe. This is just unbelievable and so easy. I will add another minute to cooking time since I have a 3.5 qt air fryer. I had no trouble peeling the eggs after the ice bath. Thank you so much for this new way of making hard boiled eggs and adding it to my growing wonderful air fryer recipes. Read More

These were perfect, but I did add a couple extra minutes. I feel the important thing here is the preheating of the air-fryer. Read More

Tried this in the new PowerXL Air Fryer Grill. The eggs were not hard boiled, they were more like a three minute soft boiled egg. Read More
