Ingredients:

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil or cooking spray
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon sweet pickle relish
  • Paprika, for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Hard-Boil the Eggs:
    • Preheat your air fryer to 250°F (121°C).
    • Place the eggs in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
    • Cook for 17 minutes.
    • Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath and let them sit until cool enough to handle. Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise.
  2. Prepare the Filling:
    • Remove the yolks from the egg whites and place them in a bowl.
    • Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, and sweet pickle relish to the yolks.
    • Mash and mix until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
    • Transfer the filling to a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the tip cut off.
  3. Prepare the Egg Whites:
    • In one shallow bowl, place the flour.
    • In a second shallow bowl, beat the additional egg.
    • In a third shallow bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, dried parsley flakes, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and pepper.
  4. Coat the Egg Whites:
    • Dip each egg white into the flour, ensuring it’s fully coated.
    • Next, dip it into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off.
    • Finally, coat it with the panko mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  5. Air Fry the Egg Whites:
    • Preheat the air fryer to 390°F (199°C).
    • Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil or cooking spray.
    • Place the coated egg whites in the basket, ensuring they are not touching.
    • Lightly spray the tops with olive oil or cooking spray.
    • Air fry for 8-10 minutes, turning halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
  6. Assemble the Devilled Eggs:
    • Once the egg whites are done, remove them from the air fryer and let them cool slightly.
    • Pipe or spoon the prepared filling into the centre of each egg white.
    • Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika.
  7. Serve:
    • Serve the air fryer devilled eggs warm or at room temperature.
