American Breakfast
AIR FRYER FRIED EGGS
2 eggs
SPECIAL UTENSILS
air fryer
parchment paper*
2 mini-cake pans
* = Parchment paper should fit in min-cake pans
PREPARATION
Preheat air fryer for 4 minutes at 360 degrees. Line mini-cake pans with parchment paper. Add 1 egg to each mini-cake pan. Place mini-cake pans in air-fryer basket. Set temperature to 360 degrees. Set timer to 7 minutes. For over-easy eggs, set timer to 4 minutes. For more well-done eggs, set timer to 8 minutes. (Times vary between air fryers. Check eggs when they should be nearly done. Use oven mitts to remove mini-cake pan from fryer basket.)
Eggs should come out of the min-cake pans when tipped over. If not, carefully remove the egg with a flexible spatula.
TIDBITS
1) Cleaning up with this recipe will be a snap compared to the alternative of frying eggs with butter in a pan. Or even, frying them au naturel. I mean by that, not using butter. I would never suggest frying anything in the nude. Particularly bacon. Oh gosh, no.
2) As I write, the price of eggs is at an all time, maybe double the cost of a year ago.
3) Some people think the high cost of eggs influenced the last election.
4) There’s something to this fear. The crushing cost of bread and the ensuing riots precipitated the French Revolution.
5) This fear has not gone away. The French government heavily monitors and regulates bread prices.
6) If your last name was People, wouldn’t you be sorely tempted to name your baby, Some?
7) Then everything Some says could be repeated as, “Some People says this.”
8) Remember when eggs were so cheap that trick-or treaters would egg peoples houses?
