Place the air fryer basket, trivet, or rack in the cooking pot and place the eggs on top, without stacking them. Set the temperature to 250°F degrees Fahrenheit (approximately 120°C) and time to 16 or 17 minutes, then air fry (see notes).
Once the cooking time is over, use a large kitchen spoon to transfer the eggs to a bowl filled with ice-cold water (or an ice water bath, if you have some ice cubes in your freezer).
Allow the eggs to cool for about 5-10 minutes before peeling. Once cooled, crack the bottom part of the egg using a spoon and peel. Season with some salt and pepper or with your preferred seasonings and serve!

Notes
Cooking TimesDifferent types of boiled eggs have different cooking times. Using a temperature of 250°F (approximately 120°C), use the following time guide:-
Soft-boiled eggs - 13 minutes.
Hard-boiled eggs - 16-17 minutes (the time will depend on how hard you like your boiled eggs).
You can also make hard-boiled eggs at a higher temperature of 300°F (approximately 150°C) for 11-12 minutes.
Useful Tips
The Watts of your air fryer will also have an impact on the cooking time. Most air fryers have 300 watts and require 13-15 minutes to cook hard-boiled eggs.
Lay the eggs in a single layer on the rack or air fryer basket without stacking, so they cook evenly.
You do not need to preheat the air fryer before cooking.
