Air fryer avocado eggs for a small breakfast portion. Enlarge the hollows, support the halves securely and cook the eggs until fully set.

Ingredients

2 servings

Method

  1. 1

    Prepare

    Halve and stone avocado. Enlarge hollows to hold an egg each; mix scooped flesh with lemon juice and chill.

  2. 2

    Mix and season

    Support halves in suitable heatproof moulds. Crack eggs individually into a cup and slide inside. Season with salt and pepper. Use a heatproof dish suitable for the appliance, leaving space around it for airflow. Do not preheat with loose paper.

  3. 3

    Cook

    If required by the manufacturer, preheat for 3 minutes at 170 °C. Cook about 20 minutes at 170 °C. Both white and yolk must be completely firm; extend if needed. Check that the thickest part reaches at least 70 °C for 2 minutes; continue cooking if needed.

  4. 4

    Check and serve

    Remove with oven gloves and serve with chilled lemon avocado flesh. Do not handle hot skins with bare hands.
