Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs With Instant Pot Recipes

INSTANT POT® HARD-BOILED EGGS

Steps:

• Insert a wire rack in the bottom of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Pour in water. Carefully place raw eggs onto the rack, fitting them in tightly. Close and lock the lid.
• Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 4 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• As soon as the timer goes off, hit cancel and release the pressure using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid, as leaving eggs in longer will result in overcooked eggs.
• Transfer eggs to a large bowl using a serving spoon and cover with cold water. Let cool for 5 minutes. Peel while still warm and rinse off any shell pieces. Use immediately or store in the fridge.
