How to Hard Boil Eggs
There really is no correct answer for this. If you have your own favorite method of hard boiling eggs, use it! Whether that is hard boiling eggs in an Instant Pot, boiling water or even in the oven! And we are showing you how to hard boil an egg in the air fryer…
How to Hard Boil Eggs in an Air Fryer
For us, we love the ease of the Air Fryer. It’s an appliance that sits on the counter top and is just so easy o use. Not to mention, you get perfectly cooked hard boiled eggs that leave the shells to peel off with ease. Here’s how:
Place your eggs in the bottom of the air fryer basket.
Set your Air Fryer to 250° and cook for 15-17 minutes.
When finished, allow the eggs to sit in the Air Fryer for 2-3 minutes.
In a large bowl, add ice and cold water.
Place the hard boiled eggs in the ice bath and allow them to cool for 5 minutes.
Gently remove the egg shell from the egg. We use the ice bath to give the hard boiled egg a quick rinse to ensure there is no more egg shell pieces.

Once you have your hard boiled egg cooled and peeled, slice the eggs in half.
Remove the yolk and set aside in a bowl. Repeat until your eggs are just the hard boiled egg white.
In a bowl, pour beet juice until it’s 3/4 of the way full. Carefully place a few of the egg whites in the bowl. Use a fork to “dunk” each egg so that it colors the egg evenly. Allow them to sit for 3-5 minutes to achieve a dark color. The longer you let the eggs sit, the darker the color will become.
Using a fork, set the hard boiled egg on paper towels and allow to dry completely.
Once you have the color you desire, create your favorite Deviled Egg Recipe and enjoy!
