Instant Pot Hard boiled Eggs
Let me show you how to make instant pot hard boiled eggs that are easy to peel and come out perfect every time. I use the 5 5 cold water method, yes, I don’t keep a tab on the last 5 minutes, and I have never had a sob story with my way. Right, let’s get straight to it with my step by step guide.
Equipment
- Trivet or steamer basket
- Instant Pot
- Thong and bowl
Ingredients
- 6 Eggs: I used free range large eggs
- Cold water
Instructions
- Place the trivet in the inner pot of your instant pot
- Then add 1 cup of room temperature water
- Carefully place the eggs on the trivet
- Lock the instant pot to safety with the valve on the seal position. Select manual or high-pressure button and cook on high pressure for 5 minutes. Once the cooking cycle is completed, let the pot do another 5 minutes natural pressure release then do a quick release.
- Using a thong, carefully transfer the eggs to the water bath and leave for another 5 minutes. Peel the eggs and serve as desired.
