Air Fryer Poached Eggs

Instructions:

1. Preheat Air Fryer:

  • Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3–5 minutes.

2. Prep Ramekin:

  • Lightly grease the inside of the ramekin (optional).
  • Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water to each ramekin.
  • Crack one egg into each ramekin (carefully so the yolk stays intact).

3. Air Fry:

  • Carefully place ramekins into the air fryer basket.
  • Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 5 to 6 minutes for runny yolks.
    • Add 1–2 more minutes for firmer yolks.

4. Remove & Serve:

  • Use tongs or an oven mitt to remove ramekins (they’ll be hot).
  • Gently lift the egg out with a spoon or slotted spoon.
  • Dab with a paper towel to remove excess water, if desired.

🍽️ Tips:

  • Silicone muffin cups also work well and are easy to clean.
  • Use room temperature eggs for more even cooking.
  • Add a splash of vinegar to the water for a more traditional poach feel (optional).
