Frequently Asked Questions
How do I keep the yolks soft?
Check at 12–13 minutes — for runny yolks pull it as soon as the whites set; leave the full 15 minutes for firmer eggs. Air fryers vary, so watch the first time.
Do I need parchment?
Yes — it stops the egg running through the basket and makes it easy to lift out. Leave gaps at the edges so air still circulates.
What else can I add?
Cherry tomatoes, spinach, peppers or different cheeses all work. Keep it to one layer so everything cooks evenly around the eggs.
