AIR FRYER SCOTCH EGGS



Air Fryer Scotch Eggs image

When you make Scotch eggs in your air fryer, you get all the deliciousness without the mess and added fat of deep frying. They make the perfect breakfast or snack, especially when served with the chutney dipping sauce. Cook the eggs to your liking; either hard-boiled or slightly soft, you can't go wrong. You can find mango chutney in the Indian section of your grocery store.

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons mango chutney (such as Patak's®)
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
⅛ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon pepper
⅛ teaspoon curry powder
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 pound pork sausage (such as Jimmy Dean®)
6 eggs, hard-boiled and shelled
⅓ cup flour
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup panko bread crumbs
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Combine yogurt, chutney, mayonnaise, salt, pepper, curry powder, and cayenne in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Divide pork sausage into 6 even portions. Flatten each portion into a thin patty. Place one egg in the middle and wrap the sausage around the eggs, sealing all sides. Set eggs aside on a plate.
  • Preheat air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place flour into a small bowl and beaten eggs into another small bowl. Place panko bread crumbs onto a plate. Dip each sausage-wrapped egg into flour, then dip into beaten egg, letting the excess drip off. Roll in bread crumbs and place onto a plate.
  • Spray basket of the air fryer with cooking spray and place eggs into the basket. Do not overcrowd; cook in batches if necessary. Cook for 12 minutes, turning eggs over halfway through. Repeat with remaining eggs. Serve with dipping sauce.

Time 30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ cup Greek yogurt
¼ cup stone-ground mustard
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
12 ounces spicy pork sausage
12 quail eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
1 egg, beaten
1 cup panko bread crumbs
1 serving cooking spray

Steps:

  • Combine yogurt, mustard, garlic powder, and cayenne in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate mustard dipping sauce until ready to use.
  • Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place flour on a flat plate. Divide sausage into 12 equal balls. Using your hands, flatten each ball into a paper thin patty. Dust both sides of each patty with flour; the flour on one side will help the sausage adhere to the egg and the flour on the other side will keep the sausage from sticking to your hands.
  • Shape each sausage patty around a hard-boiled quail egg, making sure the egg is completely sealed inside. Dip each in the beaten egg and coat in bread crumbs.
  • Spray the air fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray. Place 6 eggs in the basket and mist the tops with cooking spray. Cook for 8 minutes. Flip and spray again. Cook 6 additional minutes. Repeat with remaining eggs.
  • To serve, slice each egg in half and serve with mustard dipping sauce.
