Air fryer avocado baked eggs are a delicious and healthy breakfast option that you can easily prepare using an air fryer. Here’s a simple recipe to guide you:
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe avocados
- 4 eggs
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: shredded cheese, chopped herbs (such as chives or parsley), bacon bits
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pits. Scoop out a little bit of flesh from each avocado half to create a larger well for the eggs. Be careful not to remove too much flesh, as you want to keep the avocado stable.
- Place the avocado halves in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are stable and won’t tip over. If needed, you can slice a small piece from the bottom of each avocado half to create a flat surface.
- Crack one egg into each avocado half, carefully placing it in the well you created earlier. It’s essential to crack the eggs into a separate bowl first to avoid any shell fragments.
- Season each avocado egg with salt and pepper to taste. You can also sprinkle shredded cheese, chopped herbs, or bacon bits on top for added flavor.
- Carefully place the air fryer basket back into the machine and cook the avocado eggs for about 10-12 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks reach your desired level of doneness. Keep an eye on them during cooking to prevent overcooking.
- Once done, carefully remove the avocado baked eggs from the air fryer using oven mitts or tongs. Allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the avocado baked eggs warm, and enjoy them as a healthy and satisfying breakfast!
Note: Cooking times may vary depending on the size and ripeness of your avocados, as well as the specific model and temperature settings of your air fryer. Adjust the cooking time as needed to achieve your preferred level of doneness for the eggs.
