Ingredients
- 12 large eggs
- 1 cup cold water

- Add 1 cup water and 12 (or up to 18) raw eggs on top of the wire rack. It is ok to stack them.
The 5-5-5 Method for Hard Boiled Eggs.
- Place the lid on the pot. Move the valve to the sealing position. Use the manual function to pressure cook for 5 minutes on high pressure.
- Natural or slow release pressure for 5 minutes. This step requires you to do nothing other than watch the timer for 5 more minutes. The Instant Pot will slow release on its own. Once 5 minutes is up, quick release remaining pressure.
- Remove lid. Using tongs move hot eggs into a large bowl filled with ice and water for 5 minutes.
- Peel immediately or refrigerate.
The 3-5-5 Method for Soft Boiled Eggs
- Place the lid on the pot. Move the valve to the sealing position. Use the manual function to pressure cook for 3 minutes on high pressure.

Notes
- The best eggs to boil are those that are at least three days old. Super fresh eggs tend to be harder to peel.
