Air fryer poached eggs

Air Fryer Poached Eggs

What You’ll Need:

• Air fryer

• Ramekins or silicone muffin cups

• Cooking spray (optional)

• Fresh eggs

• Water

Instructions:

1. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3 minutes.

2. Prep the ramekins:

   • Lightly spray each ramekin with nonstick spray (optional, but helps with cleanup).

   • Add 2–3 tablespoons of water to each ramekin.

3. Crack an egg into each ramekin (do this gently to keep the yolk intact).

4. Air fry:

   • Carefully place the ramekins in the air fryer basket.

   • Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 5–6 minutes for a soft poached egg.

     • Check around 5 minutes for runny yolks.

     • Add 1–2 more minutes if you prefer firmer yolks.

5. Remove and serve:

   • Use a slotted spoon to lift the egg out of the water.

   • Drain briefly on a paper towel and serve immediately.

Tips:

• If using silicone cups, reduce time slightly as they heat faster.

• Perfect for topping toast, avocado, salads, or grain bowls.
