Only 3 Ingredients
Eggs: Choose eggs that are the same size for even cooking. For best results, always choose the freshest eggs, however, store-bought eggs peel easier and are cleaner than eggs direct from a farm. Check egg freshness by placing each one into a glass of water. If they float, discard them, if they sink to the bottom and roll to one side, they are still fresh.
Ice/Water: An ice water bath is a key step to stop the cooking process after the eggs are removed from the air fryer, as well as making peeling them super easy!
