These Instant Pot Poached Eggs are fail-proof! They are perfectly cooked in minutes with no hands-on cooking required. Great to make for a crowd without any effort. Easy, delicious, and healthy.
Ingredients
- Large eggs
- Cooking spray
Procedure
- Spray the egg bites moulds with cooking spray really well.
- Add an egg into each of the moulds without breaking a yolk.
- Place a trivet inside Instant Pot.
- Add 1 cup water to Instant Pot.
- Place the egg bites mould with the eggs on the trivet. Do not cover with foil.
- Close the lid of your Instant Pot and turn the valve to Sealing.
- Press Manual or Pressure Cooker button (depending on your model) and use the arrows to select 4 minutes.
- It should take about 5-7 minutes to come to pressure. Might be a bit less depending on your model.
- Once the Instant Pot beeps that the 4 minutes of cooking are done, do a natural pressure release for 2 minutes! It means that you just leave your Instant Pot without touching it for 2 minutes, it will count up.
- Once 2 minutes of natural pressure release are done, do a quick release. This will take another minute or so.
- Carefully remove the egg bites mould. There will be a few drops of condensation liquid on each egg.
- Invert the eggs onto a plate and the condensation will just pour out also.
Different Timing Variations For Poached Eggs Made In Instant Pot
- Egg bites moulds, 5 minutes: egg yolks aren’t fully cooked but barely runny.
- Egg bites moulds, 4 minutes: slightly more cooked egg yolk at the edges and runny egg yolk in the middle.
- Egg bites moulds, 3 minutes: egg whites slightly too runny.
Cook’s Notes
- Do not cover the eggs with foil. It means that there will be a few drops of water condensation in the moulds/bowls but I just pour it out.
- Covering eggs with foil will mean that you’d need to add 1-2 extra minutes of cooking time.
