What you'll need...

  • 4 eggs

  2. Lightly grease or spray each ramekin with olive oil. 

  3. Add the hot water to each ramekin and gently crack an egg into the water. 

  1. Carefully place ramekins in the air fryer basket and air fry for 6-8 minutes or until the yolk reaches your desired doneness.
