Low Sodium Air Fryer Hard-Boiled Eggs

Perfectly cooked hard-boiled eggs have never been easier, and the air fryer method delivers consistently set whites and fully cooked yolks every single time. The low, steady heat at 250°F gently works through the shell without the guesswork of a stovetop boil, so you're not left with rubbery whites or that dreaded greenish ring around the yolk. The ice bath step is the real secret weapon here — ten minutes in cold water stops the cooking instantly and makes peeling almost effortless, especially when you start at the wider end where the natural air pocket gives you a head start. With just eggs, ice, and water, the ingredient list is about as clean as it gets, making this a naturally sodium-free preparation that lets you season however you like at the table. Whether you're slicing them onto a salad, mashing them into egg salad, or eating them straight with a crack of black pepper, these come out beautifully every time. Keep a batch unpeeled in the fridge and you've got a ready-to-go protein source all week long.
