How many times have you wanted to eat hard-boiled eggs for breakfast only to give up because the thought of making them so early seemed daunting? Making hard-boiled eggs seems easy, but it’s important to know how long to cook them and you need to plan 15-20 minutes in advance, which can be challenging when you’re late for work.
If you own an air-fryer, you can now try this trick that recently went viral on TikTok. It doesn’t require your attention, meaning that you can get ready or do something else while your eggs are preparing. There’s no water boiling and no fear of the eggs cracking – doesn’t it sound amazing?
You only need an air fryer and cold water to cook your eggs perfectly every time without any mess. The trick was shared by TikTok user @kortneyandkarlee whose advice is to place an egg in the air fryer for 15 minutes at 270°F. After 15 minutes, remove the egg and put it in cold water—even better if you add some ice to it. This will stop the cooking process and you’ll be left with a perfectly cooked hard-boiled egg.
