These Instant Pot hard boiled eggs turn out perfect every single time! The best part is that they peel easily without sticking to the white of the egg. Eat them plain, sprinkle with seasoning or throw them in a salad - these eggs can do it all!

Ingredients
- 3 cups water divided
- 12 large eggs
- 2 cups ice
Instructions
- Add the steaming rack to the bottom of your inner pot in your 6-quart electric pressure cooker.
- Pour 1 cup of water into the inner pot of your Instant Pot.
- Set the eggs in a single layer on top of the rack. The eggs can fit snugly but do not stack the eggs on top of each other. Check your eggs for cracks before adding them to the pressure cooker. If they have a crack they may crack even more, or explode, while under pressure.
- Place the lid on the Instant Pot, lock it into place, and ensure the vent is in the "sealed" position.
- Press the manual button, set the time to 3 minutes, set the pressure to high and press start.
- You will have to wait about 5 minutes for the machine to build pressure and then the cooking time will begin. After 3 minutes the machine will beep.
- Let the eggs naturally release for 3 minutes.
- After 3 minutes of natural relase, using a hand towel carefully open the vent on the top to release the pressure. It will be loud and there will be hot steam coming out of the vent so please stand back and don’t put your hand anywhere near the hot steam.
- When the pressure is released the lid will unlock and you can twist open the lid.
- Fill a large bowl with the ice and top with water.
- Remove the eggs from the pressure cooker and add them to the bowl of ice water.
- Let the eggs cool in the water. If the ice melts, add more to keep the water cold. This helps cool down the eggs so they do not overcook. This process takes 5-10 minutes.
- Peeled hard boiled eggs can be stored in an air-tight conter in teh fridge for up to 3 days. Unpeeled eggs can stay in the fridge in an air-tight container for up to 5 days.
