When we first got our Air Fryer we thought it would be perfect to use on those nights we wanted french fries, or to make fried chicken. And yes, those are amazing.
But we have also made coconut shrimp, corn tortilla chips and now these amazing Air Fryer Puffed Egg Tarts.
Aren’t they just beautiful?
Easy enough for a weekday breakfast and fancy enough for brunch or weekend guests.
The best part is this air fryer recipe is just one of many amazing recipes in 5-Ingredient Air Fryer Recipes
Air Fryer Puffed Egg Tarts Recipe
- Preheat air fryer to 390°F (200°C)
Air Fryer Puffed Egg Tarts Ingredients:
All-purpose flour
1 sheet frozen puff pastry (half a 17.3-oz/490 g package), thawed
3⁄4 cup shredded cheese (such as Gruyère, Cheddar or Monterey Jack), divided
4 large eggs
1 tbsp minced fresh parsley or chives (optional)
Air Fryer Puffed Egg Tarts Directions:
- On a lightly floured surface, unfold pastry sheet. Cut into 4 squares.
- Place 2 squares in air fryer basket, spacing them apart. Air-fry for 10 minutes or until pastry is light golden brown.
- Open basket and, using a metal spoon, press down the centers of each square to make an indentation. Sprinkle 3 tbsp (45 mL) cheese into each indentation and carefully crack an egg into the center of each pastry.
- Air-fry for 7 to 11 minutes or until eggs are cooked to desired doneness. Transfer to a wire rack set over waxed paper and let cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with half the parsley, if desired. Serve warm.
- Repeat steps 2 to 4 with the remaining pastry squares, cheese, eggs, and parsley.
Tips
The sheet of puff pastry should be about 9 inches (23 cm) square for this recipe. If your sheets are a different size, or the pastry comes in a block, roll or trim it into a 9-inch (23 cm) square as necessary.
Air fryers become very hot, especially when heated to maximum temperature. Use oven pads or mitts when touching the appliance and when opening and closing the basket.
To make adding the egg easier, crack the egg into a small cup before sliding it onto the puff pastry.

Don’t these just look divine? So easy to make and love the idea of using an air fryer to make the eggs and pastry cook quickly and without any oil. A complete breakfast with some fruit, avocado or some veggies.
