Air fryer eggs are a quick and easy breakfast, lunch, or dinner option that can be customized to your liking. They are also a healthier alternative to fried eggs, as they use less oil. This article provides three different recipes for air fryer eggs: a basic recipe, a recipe for eggs with cheese and bacon, and a recipe for eggs with avocado and salsa. All three recipes are simple to follow and can be made in under 10 minutes.
The basic recipe for air fryer eggs simply requires you to spray your air fryer basket with cooking spray, crack an egg into the basket, and cook for 3-4 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. For the recipe with cheese and bacon, you will first cook the bacon in the air fryer until it is crispy. Then, you will add the egg and cheese to the basket and cook until the egg is cooked to your liking. For the recipe with avocado and salsa, you will first mash the avocado and spread it on a tortilla. Then, you will add the egg and salsa to the tortilla and cook in the air fryer until the egg is cooked through. All three recipes are delicious and easy to make, so you are sure to find one that you love.
