Air fryer egg and prosciutto loaf
Background
This air fryer egg and prosciutto loaf is gluten-free, low-carb and flourless, so perfect for those are on a keto or low-carb diet. It’s dairy-free too, but feel free to add some mozzarella or grated goat’s cheese to the egg mixture Sometimes I make this recipe with Iberico ham and add a spoonful of grated Manchego cheese and a pinch of paprika which give it some Spanish flavours. You can serve it warm or cold - so it’s ideal for a weekend brunch or picnics and summer trips.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- ½ grilled or roasted red pepper, skinned
- 3 spring onions
- 5 slice of prosciutto or Parma ham, or Jamon Iberico
- Salt& pepper
- 1 Tbsp chopped parsley or basil leaves
- Optional: 2 Tbsp grated cheese or 4 mini mozzarella bowls
Instructions
- Cut the spring onion and red pepper into tiny pieces. Finely chop the herbs of your choice.
- In a small bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the chopped onion, herbs and grilled red pepper. Season to your liking.
- Line a small silicon loaf case or tin with 3 or 4 slices of the ham.
- Chop the remaining ham and add to the egg mixture. Add the cheese too, if used.
- Pour the egg mixture into the loaf tin, then put it into the air fryer. Set it to bake for 15 minutes, at 190°C.
- Alternatively, bake it in a preheated oven, set to 190°C, for about 20 minutes.
- Insert a skewer in the middle - if it comes out clean, it’s ready.
- Let it cool in the case for 5 minutes, then turn it out onto a chopping board.
- When cooled, cut it into slices or chunks.
