Pour 1 cup of cold water into the bottom of the Instant Pot.

Place a steamer basket into the Instant Pot.

Add eggs to the steamer basket, ensuring they don't hit each other too hard and crack.

Close the Instant Pot and set it to sealed.

Set the Instant Pot to pressure cook for 5 or 6 minutes.

Once the cooking time is up, set a timer for 5 minutes for natural pressure release.

After 5 minutes, carefully vent the Instant Pot, standing back as the steam releases.

Open the Instant Pot carefully to avoid steam burns and take out the eggs.

Immediately place the eggs into an ice water bath for at least 5 to 10 minutes to chill them.

After chilling, take an egg out of the ice bath and tap the rounded side on a board to crack it.

Roll the egg to crack it all over.

Peel the egg under cold running water.
