Ingredients
- 8 eggs
- 1 cup water
- Instant Pot (or electric pressure cooker)
- Stackable egg steamer for Instant Pot
Instructions
- Pour the water into the pot, and place the eggs on the rack that came with your pot, or in a steamer basket.
- Close the lid, press the Manual button on the Instant Pot and adjust to 5 minutes at high pressure.
- Let the pressure naturally release for an additional 5 minutes after the cooking cycle completes, and then do a quick pressure release.
- Place the hot eggs into cool ice water to stop the cooking process. Chill for 5 minutes before peeling. Peel the hard boiled eggs.
Notes
- Allow the pressure cooker to naturally release pressure for 5 minutes before quickly releasing the remaining pressure. This will allow the eggs to continue to cook and firm up without overcooking.
- Once cooked, place the eggs into ice water bath. This stops the cooking process so they don't overcook, and also makes them easier to handle to peel.
- After boiling the eggs and cooling them in ice-cold water, gently crack the shell and roll them on the counter. The shell will fall off easily.
- If making ahead of time, let the eggs cool fully before storing them in an airtight container in the fridge.
- You can also make a dozen eggs using this recipe without changing the cooking time.
