Ever since I learned how easy it is to make hard boiled eggs in the Instant Pot, I’ve been meaning to share this recipe with you.
This is simply the fastest, easiest, most delicious recipe for deviled eggs. By using your Instant Pot, the eggs cook in just 5 minutes and they’ll be ready to use in 20 minutes, meaning from start to finish, these deviled eggs will be on your table in less than 30 minutes!
I use the 555 method for cooking eggs in the Instant Pot.
What is the 5-5-5 Method for Eggs?
- 5 minutes cook time
- 5 minutes natural pressure release (then quick release the remaining pressure)
- 5 minutes ice bath
It will also take about 5 minutes for the pressure to build in the pot, hence the 20 minutes total time.
How Do You Boil Eggs So They Peel Easy?
- Use your pressure cooker! It helps to steam the eggs so they peel super easy. You can see my post on how to make PERFECT hard boiled eggs in the Instant Pot.
How Do You Make Instant Pot Deviled Eggs?
- Place the trivet or an egg rack in the pot and add eggs and water.
- Seal pot and cook on MANUAL high pressure for 5 minutes.
- Once the time is up, let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes, then release any remaining pressure.
- Remove eggs from the pot and place in an ice water bath for 5 minutes.

I used these piping bags to fill my deviled eggs. But you can also spoon the mixture into a ziploc bag, and cut the corner off to get a similar effect. Or, simply spoon the yolk mixture into the egg white halves.
How Far Ahead Can I Make Instant Pot Deviled Eggs?
