Instant Pot hard-boiled eggs
Be the first to rate it
Eggs steamed on the rack of an electric pressure cooker for five minutes, then cooled in water so they peel easily.
Ingredients
- Eggs: as many as you like to fill the bottom of the pot rack
- 1 cup water
- Instant Pot electric pressure cooker
Equipment
- mixing bowl
Directions
- Pour the 1 cup of water into the pot. Place the eggs in a steamer basket, or on the rack that came with the pot.
- Close the lid and cook for 5 minutes at high pressure.
- It takes about 5 minutes to come up to pressure, then cooks for 5 minutes. Let the pressure release on its own for 5 more minutes, then do a quick release. The whole process is about 15 minutes.
- Put the hot eggs in cool water to stop the cooking. Peel right away or later. (Without the cool water they still peel easily, but the eggs are a little more cooked.)
Notes
Prep 10 minutes, cook 5, total 15.
