Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs

eggs

🥗Healthier: egg whites

💰Cheaper: generic brand eggs

Egg whites reduce cholesterol while providing protein.

Fill the Instant Pot with eggs directly from the refrigerator, no need to bring them to room temperature.

Add 1 cup of water to the Instant Pot, regardless of the number of eggs used.

Place a steaming basket insert into the Instant Pot with the eggs.

Ensure the sealing ring is inside the lid of the Instant Pot.

Close the lid and turn the valve to sealing position.

Set the Instant Pot to high pressure and cook for 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, set a timer for an additional 5 minutes to let the eggs rest after cooking.

Manually release the pressure by turning the valve to let the steam out, avoiding natural release to prevent overcooking.

Transfer the cooked eggs to a bowl of ice water or remove the steaming basket and fill it with cold water and ice to cool the eggs.
