Easter is quickly approaching and I always dread hard boiling my eggs. Mostly because of not being able to easily peel them.

And they still never peel easily.

Tips for Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs Ninja

An ice bath is one of the best ways to get a clean peel with a boiled egg since the air fryer doesn’t use water. 

I used a 6-quart air fryer. If you have a smaller one, just use as many eggs as you can that will fit in one layer. Do not change the temperature or time. 

Store-bought eggs peel much easier and cleaner than fresh farm eggs. I have yet to find something that truly works with fresh farm eggs. 

The eggs will be very hot when coming out of the air fryer. I tend to let them sit in the air fryer basket for a couple of minutes before handling them.

You can also use tongs if you want to get them in the ice bath sooner.
