Equipment
- Instant Pot
Ingredients
- 7 raw eggs in shell
- 1/3 cup chopped dill pickle optional but highly recommend
- 1 green onion chopped finely optional but highly recommended
- 1/8 cup greek yogurt
- 1/8 cup mayo
- 1 tsp yellow mustard
- 1/2 tsp hot sauce
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp pepper
Instructions
- GREASE your Instant Pot Egg Insert with olive oil or avocado oil spray, then crack your eggs into each of the insert holes ( there are 7 of them as seen above)
- Then cover your Instant Pot Egg Insert with the approved lid it comes with.
- Next pour 1 cup water into the Instant Pot and then put your Instant Pot Egg Insert on top of the Instant Pot Trivet (that comes with it when you buy it) to lower it down on top of that 1 cup water you just poured in.
- Then seal the Instant Pot lid. Make sure that the steam release valve is sealed. High pressure for 4 minutes & naturally release for 4 minutes. (read below for explanation if new to Instant Pot)
- Then you will turn the steam release valve from sealed to vent. WAIT until the float valve drops and then remove lid. DO NOT remove lid until float valve has dropped.
- Remove the Instant Pot Egg Insert by the trivet handles with gloves or towels so you do not burn your hands, it will be hot. Let sit for 2 minutes with the lid off.
- Pop your eggs out of the insert and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Then start to chop your eggs with fork & knife into the bite sized egg salad pieces you prefer
- Then add in chopped pickles, green onions, salt, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, pepper, hot sauce, mayo and Greek Yogurt
- Mix with a spatula until throughly combined. Put in an air tight container and place in refrigerator until ready to eat!
New to Instant Pot read HERE to explain the high pressure 4 minutes and natural release for 4 minute instructions below
- Then you hit Pressure Cook: HIGH PRESSURE for 4 minutes. It will read ON and once it is brought to full pressure it will read 00:04. Once it is done it will read 00:00 and beep 2 to 3 times. Then let it naturally release for 4 more minutes. Which means you will not do anything after the screen reads 00:00, until it reads L0 00:04.
If you aren't using the Instant Pot Insert Read Below:
- If you are not using the insert, you will crack your eggs into the OVEN SAFE bowl
- if you are not using the insert, place a size of aluminum foil over the bowl so that no excess liquid gets in
