Notes
Each air fryer is different and so it might be possible that you don't get perfectly cooked eggs in 20 minutes at the given temperature. I suggest cooking 1-2 eggs to start with and when they turn out perfect, go ahead and cook eggs in larger quantities. The altitude might also affect the cooking time.
If the eggs are not cold, then reduce the time to 15 minutes.
Sometimes eggs get brown spots on the shell but do not worry. It happens if you haven't cleaned your air fryer for a while. The eggs are still fine to consume.
Make sure to not overcrowd the basket so that eggs cook perfectly and evenly.
You might see some raised spots on the outer shell of the eggs, it is because of hot air circulating inside the air fryer. It won't affect the eggs inside.
Once the eggs are cooked, transfer them to a bowl filled with ice-cold water to stop the cooking process immediately.
If your air fryer doesn't have a basket, you can use a grill rack or mesh rack to place the eggs.
