Before we get to our hack (which works great for chopped hard boiled eggs), let’s review how to make Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs. If you need whole hard boiled eggs, this is how to do it.

Use the 6-6-6 method of hard boiling eggs. Fill your Instant Pot with 1 cup water. Place the rack inside and top with the eggs you wish to hard boil. Cook on manual or pressure cook setting for 6 minutes, then allow to natural release for 6 minutes. Remove eggs from Instant Pot and place in an ice bath for 6 minutes. These eggs are super-easy to peel.

If you are chopping your hard boiled eggs, they can be made even faster and with no peeling required.

Prepare your Instant Pot by filling with 1 cup of water and placing the trivet inside.

In a bowl that will fit into your Instant Pot, spray inside of bowl with cooking spray, then break in the desired number of eggs.

In a bowl that will fit inside your Instant Pot inner chamber, break the number of eggs you wish to hard boil.

Place the bowl inside the Instant Pot, on top of the trivet. This is called the pot-in-pot method or PIP.

There are 3 sizes of Instant Pots. (And I do highly recommend that you stick to the name brand on this device. It’s worth it.)

Three (3) quart is considered the “mini” for side dishes, dorms, RVs, and other smaller needs.
Six (6) quart is the standard size that easily feeds 4-6 people and can cook a meatloaf, cheesecake, or a small chicken or roast.
Eight (8) quart is for if you are cooking for a larger family. It takes a bit longer to come to pressure but the extra size is handy.
