Steps:
- Combine yogurt, mustard, garlic powder, and cayenne in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate mustard dipping sauce until ready to use.
- Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- To serve, slice each egg in half and serve with mustard dipping sauce.

Tips:
- Preheat your air fryer for 3-5 minutes before cooking your eggs. This will help them cook evenly.
- Use a non-stick cooking spray or oil to grease the air fryer basket. This will prevent the eggs from sticking.
- Be careful with the cooking time. Eggs can overcook quickly in an air fryer. Start with a shorter cooking time and adjust as needed.
- Use a fork or spatula to flip the eggs halfway through cooking. This will help them cook evenly.
- Season the eggs to taste. You can use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or any other desired spices.
- Serve the eggs immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Air fryer eggs are a quick and easy breakfast, lunch, or snack. They are also a healthy alternative to fried eggs, as they are cooked with less oil.
