Steps
01Cut each avocado in half and remove the pit.
02Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of avocado flesh from each half to widen the well. The pit hole alone isn't big enough for most eggs.
03Crack one egg into each avocado half. If the egg is too big, use just the yolk and enough white to fill the well.
04Season with salt and pepper. Add any toppings.
05Ready for the air fryer. Place the avocado halves in the basket carefully so they sit flat and the egg doesn't spill.
If the avocados wobble in the basket, crumple a small piece of foil into a nest for each one. A tipped avocado dumps raw egg into your air fryer, which is not a fun cleanup. Flat and stable matters.
