Ingredients
- 4 large eggs room temp
- 2 tbsp milk or cream 30 ml — optional for extra creaminess
- ¼ tsp salt & ⅛ tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp shredded cheddar 30 g
- ½ small bell pepper diced (or 2 tbsp sautéed mushrooms)
- 2 tbsp chopped spinach optional
- 2 slices cooked turkey bacon crumbled (optional)
- 1 tsp olive oil to grease ramekins
- Fresh chives for garnish optional
Instructions
- Prep fillings: Cook turkey bacon and sauté any mushrooms/onions until moisture is gone (5–8 min). Preheat air fryer to 160°C / 320°F.
- Grease ramekins: Lightly oil two 6–8 oz ramekins with 1 tsp olive oil total.
- Whisk eggs: In a bowl, whisk 4 large eggs with 2 tbsp milk, ¼ tsp salt, and ⅛ tsp pepper until smooth and slightly frothy.
- Assemble: Divide fillings and 1 tbsp shredded cheddar between ramekins. Pour egg mixture into ramekins (leave ~1 cm headspace). Top with remaining cheese.
- Cook: Place ramekins in the air fryer basket and cook at 160°C / 320°F for 10–12 minutes. Begin checking at 9 minutes.
- Check temp: Insert instant-read thermometer into center — target 71°C / 160°F for fully-set, safe eggs (for a softer center you may remove at 63°C / 145°F).
- Optional finish: For a golden top, increase to 170°C / 340°F for 1–2 minutes.
- Rest & serve: Let cool 30–60 seconds, run a knife around the edge, unmold, and garnish with chives. Serve immediately.
