Ingredients
2 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2-inch cubes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
4 large eggs
Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
In a medium bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika until evenly coated.
Place the seasoned potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping.
While the potatoes cook, spray a small heatproof dish or ramekin with cooking spray.
After the potatoes have cooked for 12 minutes, carefully crack two eggs into the prepared dish.
Place the dish with eggs into the air fryer basket alongside the potatoes and cook for an additional 3 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but yolks remain runny. Adjust time if you prefer firmer yolks.
Repeat the egg cooking step for the remaining two eggs if your air fryer cannot fit all eggs at once.
Serve the crispy potatoes topped with the air-fried eggs immediately.
