Instructions
Stove Top Method
Place the eggs in a large saucepan then cover them with cool water by 1 inch. Cover with a lid and bring water to a boil over high heat
Once the water has reached its boiling point, set the timer for the desired time. 4 minutes will yield soft boiled egg, very soft whites, and runny yolk and 9 minutes will yield traditional firm hard boiled eggs.
When the timer is up, use a slotted spoon, transfer them to a large bowl with ice and cold water immediately and let them cool down for a couple of minutes before peeling.
Air Fryer Method
Place your room temperature eggs into your air fryer.
Set the air fryer to 250F for 11 minutes.
Once the eggs have cooked for 11 minutes, immediately place them in an ice bath before peeling.
Instant Pot Method
Place your room temperature eggs on a trivet inside of your Instant Pot before adding in 1 cup of water.
Close your lid, set the valve to sealing, and set your manual pressure. 5 minutes for soft slightly runny yolks. 7 minutes for firmer creamy yolks
Quick release once done and immediately place them in an ice bath using tongs before peeling.
Oven Method
Heat oven to 325F.
Place your room temperature eggs in a muffin tin and bake for 30 minutes.
Once done, place them in an ice bath before peeling.
