Perfectly Cooked Eggs

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 to 6 large or jumbo eggs

Pour the water into the Instant Pot. Place a steamer basket or trivet in the pot. Carefully arrange eggs in the steamer basket. Secure the lid on the pot. Close the pressure-release valve.

For soft-cooked eggs, select Manual and cook on low pressure for 3 minutes. When cooking time is complete, use a natural release to depressurize. (another recipe I found said to quick release the pressure instead) For medium-cooked eggs, cook for 4 minutes, for hard-boiled eggs, cook for 5 minutes.)

Remove the lid and gently place eggs in a bowl of cool water.
