Steps

  1. 1Add water to the pot of your Instant Pot until there is about an inch of water covering the bottom of the pot, about 1-2 cups.
  2. 2Place the wire trivet (or egg rack if you have one) in the bottom of the pot.
  3. 3Put as many raw eggs as you would like to cook on the trivet - you should be able to fit 8-9 on it easily.
  4. 4Add the lid of the pot and turn it to the locked position. Make sure the valve is in the sealing position.
  5. 5Cook on high pressure for 4 minutes for hard boiled eggs.
  6. 6The pot will take 10-15 minutes to come to pressure before starting to count down the 4 minutes.
  7. 7When the cook time is finished, quick release the pressure.
  8. 8Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool completely (about 10-15 minutes).
  9. 9Peel and store them in the fridge in an airtight container for up to one week.
  10. 10For soft boiled eggs, cook on high pressure for 1-2 minutes (see notes for the differences in the eggs at each time), quick release the pressure, and serve.
