Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs

  • Cooking oil spray

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

  • 5-inch mini pie tins (recommended for best results)

Instructions

  1. Lightly spray the mini pie tin(s) with cooking oil spray.

  2. Crack one egg into each pie tin (one egg per pan).

  3. Place the tins into the air fryer basket or on the top rack if using an air fryer oven.

  4. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 3–5 minutes, until the egg whites are fully set.

    • 3–4 minutes: softer whites, runny yolk

    • 5 minutes: firm whites, nicely runny yolk

  5. Cook longer if you prefer a firmer yolk. Remove carefully and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Mini pie tins give the most consistent results and prevent spreading

  • Always check that the egg whites are fully cooked before serving

  • If you are at higher risk for foodborne illness, cook until the yolk is firm

  • Cooking time may vary slightly depending on your air fryer model
