Mini Scotch Eggs in the Air Fryer

This recipe uses quail eggs, hence ‘mini’ eggs, and are the perfect finger food for a party. Crispy on the outside… tender on the inside. Scotch eggs made healthier in an air fryer.

Step: 1

Combine yogurt, mustard, garlic powder, and cayenne in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate mustard dipping sauce until ready to use.

Step: 2

Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step: 3

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.

Step: 4

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.

Step: 5

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.

Step: 6

To serve, slice each egg in half and serve with mustard dipping sauce.
