How to Make Deviled Eggs in the Air Fryer

  • Place the eggs directly on the grate in an air fryer basket.
  • Air fry at 250°F for 15-17 minutes. Once done, remove the eggs from the air fryer and place them into a large bowl with ice water. Allow them to sit for 5-10 minutes before peeling. 
  • Once peeled, cut each egg in half lengthways. Then, carefully scoop the yolks into a medium bowl and use a fork to break them up.
  • Add the mayonnaise, relish, salt, and pepper to the yolks and mix thoroughly. Divide the deviled egg filling equally among the egg whites and dust with paprika.

Helpful Notes:

  • Air fryers are all a bit different so I recommend making a hard-boiled egg as a test if you haven’t made them in the air fryer before.
  • Allow the eggs to cool completely in an ice bath for easier peeling. 
  • I prefer to pat the relish dry before adding it to the yolk mixture so the filling doesn’t become runny. 

Storage and Reheating Instructions:

Deviled eggs store well and are delicious the next day!

IN THE FRIDGE: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. 

IN THE FREEZER: Deviled eggs aren’t good candidates for freezing. I recommend you make a fresh batch when you want to serve them.
