Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs

Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • 1 cup water

Instructions

  1. Place the steam rack on the bottom of the Instant Pot. Add 1 cup water.
  2. Place the eggs on the steam rack.
  3. Close and lock the lid. Set the valve to the sealing position.
  4. Press the Manual button.
  5. Press the + or - and set the time for 5-8 minutes. Cook larger eggs longer and smaller eggs fewer minutes. You can also adjust the time depending on how hard or soft you like your eggs. For softer eggs cook less, for harder eggs cook longer.
  6. When the cooking cycle ends, wait 5 minutes and then turn the steam release button to the venting position. Let the steam out until the float valve drops down.
  7. Press the keep warm/cancel button. When the LED displays OFF and the float valve is down you can open the lid.
  8. Remove the eggs and place them in a bowl of ice water. Cool the eggs at least 5 minutes.
  9. Serve the hard boiled eggs warm or refrigerate them and serve them cold later. Peel the eggs just before serving.

Notes

Make sure to keep your hands and face away from the steam release openings.

Unpeeled hard boiled eggs will keep a week in the refrigerator.

You can also cool the eggs by running them under cold water until they are cool.
