Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup water

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Place a trivet or egg rack in the bottom of your Instant Pot. Pour 1 cup of water over the trivet.
  2. Carefully arrange the eggs on the trivet in a single layer.
  3. Secure the lid and set the valve to sealing. Cook on Manual/High Pressure for 5 minutes.
  4. Once the cooking time is complete, allow for a natural pressure release (NPR) for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, perform a quick pressure release (QPR) to release any remaining steam. Carefully open the lid.
  5. Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath (a bowl filled with ice and water) for at least 5-10 minutes to stop the cooking process and make them easier to peel.
  6. Gently tap the eggs and peel them. They should peel easily.
