Spice Free Air Fryer Hard-Boiled Eggs

Perfectly cooked hard-boiled eggs are one of those kitchen wins that never gets old, and the air fryer makes the whole process almost effortless. With just eggs, ice, and cold water, this method is about as clean and simple as a recipe can get — no seasonings, no marinades, nothing that could cause a reaction or irritation for those keeping things completely plain. The low-and-slow temperature does the heavy lifting, giving you fully set whites and yolks that aren't chalky or green-tinged around the edges. The ice bath step is the real secret weapon here, stopping the cooking instantly and making the shells slide off far more easily than the stovetop method ever did. These are endlessly versatile — slice them over salads, pack them for lunch, or eat them straight with a pinch of salt if that's your thing. Store them unpeeled in the fridge and you've got a week's worth of easy, satisfying protein ready to go.
