Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 2 Tbsp Double (Heavy) Cream or Whole Milk
  • 4 Large Eggs
  • Pinch Sea Salt
  • Pinch Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 oz Crumbled Feta Cheese
  • 1 tsp Fresh Chives, finely chopped

Instructions:

  1. Prep the Ramekins: Use the softened butter to thoroughly grease the inside of the two standard 6 oz (180 ml) ramekins, ensuring the sides and bottom are coated.
  2. Add Cream Base: Pour 1 tablespoon (15ml) of cream or milk into the base of each greased ramekin.
  3. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Preheating is essential for consistent egg results.
  4. Crack the Eggs: Gently crack two large eggs into each ramekin, being careful not to break the yolks. They should sit neatly on top of the cream base.
  5. Initial Seasoning: Season the egg whites lightly with salt and pepper. Avoid seasoning the yolks at this stage.
  6. Place in Air Fryer: Carefully place the ramekins into the air fryer basket. Cook for 8 minutes for soft, runny yolks, or 9–10 minutes for jammy, medium yolks. The whites should be fully opaque and set.
  7. Rest and Finish: Carefully remove the hot ramekins using tongs. Immediately sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and fresh chives over the top.
  8. Serve Hot: Allow the eggs to sit for 1 minute before serving directly in the ramekins.
