Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup water
  • 12-18 eggs

Instructions
 

  • Place one cup of water into the Instant Pot; add the trivet to the bottom of pot. Stack the eggs on top of each other on the trivet.
  • Lock the Instant Pot lid into place, choosing High Pressure for 6 minutes, bringing the Instant Pot to full pressure.
  • When the timer sounds, perform a quick release to remove all the pressure from the Instant Pot.
  • Immediately pour the entire contents of the Instant Pot into a large bowl of ice water.
  • After 2-3 minutes of letting the eggs chill a bit, remove the eggs, one at a time from the bowl of water, cracking the shells of each egg on the counter. Re-submerge each egg beneath the cold water in the bowl, gently peeling and pulling all the shells from each egg with your fingers.
