Directions:

  1.  Place the stainless steel insert pot into the Instant Pot base, along with the included steamer insert. Pour in one cup of water.
  2. Arrange the desired number of large eggs on top of the steamer insert.  I usually do six to eight eggs at a time.
  3. Lock the lid on top of the Instant Pot and make sure the steam release knob is turned to "sealing".
  4. Press the "manual" button on the front. High pressure should automatically be selected, but if it's not, make sure you change it.
  5. Use the plus/minus buttons to bring the time to five minutes.
  6. When the timer goes off, let the steam release naturally.  Feel free to release though if you are in a hurry.
  7. Once the pressure is released, press the cancel button to turn the warming function off.  Remove the lid and transfer the eggs to a bowl and allow eggs to cool on counter for 5-10 minutes before eating or placing them in the refrigerator for later use (up to one week).
