I love my Air Fryer & thought I’d nail some breakfast eggs – it was a disaster & don’t get me started on the clean up
THERE are a great many things you can cook in your Air Fryer.
The Air Fryer phenomena took social media by storm last year and there are tons of super easy and quick recipes to try out.
But that doesn’t mean you can cook everything in an Air Fryer one woman has found that lesson out the hard way.
TikTok creator Air Fryer Girl UK is obsessed with easy to cook Air Fryer recipes but she struck disaster when she tried her hand at eggs,
She said: “It turns out this is NOT the way to cook eggs in the Air Fryer.”
The foodie placed a raw egg into two silicone Air Fryer.
She said: “It was looking so good”
She set her Air Fryer to 190 degrees and set the timer for 6 minutes.
But disaster struck after just 60 seconds. A minute later the food pulled out her Air Fryer tray which had egg splattered everywhere.
In fact the egg which was still half raw was everywhere but in the silicone cup.
She said: “Oh dear… disaster.”
The disastrous egg Air Fryer video went viral with over a million views.
Many users couldn’t understand why the creator didn’t just cook the eggs on a stove.

One user said: “Turns out that using a pan of water works just fine FFS.”
Another said: “Or… hear me out – you cook them on the stove in a pan like any normal person.”
The reason why the recipe was such a flop is due to the mechanics of the Air Fryer.
One user explained: “They blow air very hard downwards onto things. If a strong fan will knock it over, it will spill. Learnt this the hard way.”
The silicone cups were also too light to withstand the force of the air from the Air Fryer so they didn’t sit still.
Despite this total flop, it is actually possible to successfully cook eggs in an Air Fryer.
