Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs
Author: The Prairie Homestead
Ingredients
Eggs (as many as you like to fill the bottom of the pot rack)
1 cup water
Instant Pot electric pressure cooker
INSTRUCTIONS:
Pour the water into the pot, and place the eggs in a steamer basket if you have one. If you don't, just use the rack that came with your pot.
Close the lid, set for 4 minutes at high pressure.
It will take the cooker approximately 5 minutes to build to pressure and then 4 minutes to cook. I let the pressure naturally reduce for an additional 5 minutes after the cooking cycle completed, and then did a quick pressure release. That's around 14 minutes, total.
Place the hot eggs into cool water to halt the cooking process. You can peel immediately, or wait-- it's up to you. (The first time I did this, I didn't plunge into cool water, and they still peeled very easily. The eggs were just slightly more cooked.)
