Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 cups water (or more if needed)
½ cup white vinegar
20 drops food coloring (different colors, I used gel)
12 large white eggs (uncooked)

Steps:

  • Prep the Instant Pot: Pour 2 cups of water in the instant pot liner. Place the trivet inside.
  • Prepare Eggs: Place 3 eggs in each mason jar. You'll need 4 jars that will fit together in your Instant Pot. Pour about ½ cup of water in each jar, or enough to reach the top of the eggs. Add 2 tbsp of vinegar to each mason jar and combine different food coloring in each one. Next, place the mason jars into the Instant Pot. Secure the lid onto the pot and make sure to turn the vent at the top of it to the "Sealing" Position.
  • Cook: Press the "Manual" button on the Instant Pot then the "-" sign to lower the time to 5 minutes.
  • Pressure Release: Once the Instant Pot cycle is complete, wait 5 minutes for natural release then use quick release, change the valve to "Venting" position and place a towel over the valve so steam doesn't get everywhere. Carefully unlock and remove the lid from the pot.
  • Shock: Use tongs to carefully remove the eggs from the jars, place the eggs in a bowl with ice water and let them sit for 5 minutes. Doing this stops the eggs from cooking further. After 5 minutes they are ready for you to serve!

Number Of Ingredients 2

12 eggs
1 cup water

Steps:

  • Pour 1 cup of water in the bottom of the Instant Pot (if you're using an 8 QT Instant Pot, use 1 ½ cups water instead of 1 cup)
  • Place the trivet or hard boiled egg rack into the Instant Pot and carefully place as many eggs as you'd like to make on top of the trivet.
  • Seal the Instant Pot and set to Manual High Pressure for 5 minutes (it'll take about 5 minutes to come to pressure).
  • Once the Instant Pot is done cooking, allow it to naturally release for 5 minutes. While the Instant Pot is naturally releasing, fill a bowl with cold water and ice cubes.
  • After 5 minutes of naturally releasing the pressure, quick release the remainder of the pressure. Take the eggs out of the Instant Pot and carefully place in the ice water.
  • While the eggs are cooling, prepare the egg dyes according to the package instructions.
  • Once eggs are cooled, remove from water and dry with a paper towel. Dye and decorate according to the egg kit package instructions.

Tips:

  • Use fresh eggs: Fresh eggs are easier to peel and will have a better flavor.
  • Start with room temperature eggs: This will help prevent the eggs from cracking when you add them to the Instant Pot.
  • Don't overcrowd the Instant Pot: Leave some space between the eggs so that they can cook evenly.
  • Use a steamer basket: This will help keep the eggs out of the water and prevent them from cracking.
  • Cook the eggs for the correct amount of time: Overcooking the eggs will make them tough and rubbery.
  • Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath: This will stop the cooking process and make the eggs easier to peel.
  • Peel the eggs under cold running water: This will help loosen the shells and make them easier to remove.

Conclusion:

Making Easter eggs in the Instant Pot is a quick and easy way to get perfectly cooked eggs every time. With just a few simple steps, you can have a batch of colorful and festive eggs ready to enjoy in no time. You can use them to decorate your home, hide them for an Easter egg hunt, or simply enjoy them as a delicious snack.
