Air Fryer Breakfast Bombs are just what you need to start the week out right. The pockets of dough are stuffed with perfectly scrambled eggs, beans, pico de gallo, and a sprinkling of pepper Jack cheese. Serve them wrapped in foil for an easy breakfast on-the-go, or make them a bigger brunch meal with a platter of crispy bacon (made in the air fryer if you please), sautéed kale, and a batch of mimosas.

To make these portable breakfast pockets even faster, you (or your kitchen assistant) can scramble the eggs on the stovetop. Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium, pour egg mixture into the skillet, and cook, stirring often, until the eggs are scrambled to your liking.

Ingredients

Olive oil cooking spray
3
large eggs
2 tsp.
whole milk
1/4 tsp.
kosher salt
1/4 cup
cooked black beans
1/4 cup
pico de gallo
1/2 cup
shredded pepper Jack cheese
All-purpose flour, for surface
8 oz.
whole grain or whole wheat pizza dough
Hot sauce, for serving

Directions

1. Step 1Grease a 6" nonstick round cake pan with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, milk, and salt to combine. Stir in beans and pico de gallo.
2. Step 2Pour egg mixture into prepared pan; place pan in an air-fryer basket. Cook at 300°, stirring and scraping bottom and sides every 2 minutes, until scrambled and just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from air fryer and stir in cheese.
3. Step 3On a lightly floured surface, divide dough into 4 pieces. Roll each piece into a thin 5" circle. Divide egg mixture among rounds (about a heaping 1/4 c. each). Bring edges of dough together; pinch to seal. Spray with cooking spray.
4. Step 4Spray air-fryer basket with cooking spray. Arrange filled dough in a single layer in basket, spacing about 1/2" apart. Cook at 350° until golden and crispy, about 10 minutes. Serve warm with hot sauce alongside.
