Table of Contents

A deliciously warm and toasty egg salad sandwich made right in the air fryer!

Ingredients:

4 large eggs

2 tbsp mayonnaise

1 tsp Dijon mustard

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp black pepper

1 tbsp chopped chives or green onions (optional)

4 slices of bread (white, wheat, or sourdough)

1 tbsp butter (for spreading)

2 slices of cheese (optional)

Instructions:

Air Fry the Eggs – Place eggs in the air fryer basket and cook at 250°F (120°C) for 15 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath for 5 minutes, then peel and chop.

Make Egg Salad – In a bowl, mix chopped eggs, mayo, mustard, salt, pepper, and chives.

Assemble Sandwich – Spread butter on one side of each bread slice. Place egg salad on an unbuttered side, add cheese (if using), and top with another slice, buttered side out.

Air Fry – Place the sandwich in the air fryer at 370°F (190°C) for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.

Serve – Slice and enjoy your warm, creamy egg salad sandwich!

Tips for the Best Air Fryer Egg Salad Sandwich:

Perfect Hard-Boiled Eggs – If your air fryer tends to overcook, try lowering the temp to 240°F (115°C) and cook for 13-14 minutes for slightly softer yolks.

Extra Creamy Egg Salad – Mash the yolks separately before mixing with mayo and mustard for a smoother texture.

Crispier Bread – Lightly press the sandwich before air frying for an even, golden crunch.
