Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs

 

I'd like to dedicate this post to my Mom and siblings who have an Instant Pot but never use it because they don't know what to make in it.  I'm still learning new things myself, but these eggs are something I make frequently and they are so easy to do.  Plus, it's totally hands off so you don't have to sit and babysit a pot of boiling water and they peel so easily! It's handy to have hard boiled eggs on hand for sandwiches (have you tried the Egg Salad Sandwich with Bacon and Cheddar Cheese yet ?) , salads, deviled eggs, or just to snack on! I tend to grab one of these in the late afternoon when it's too close to dinner to eat something big but I want a protein packed snack to tide me over.  Hope you'll give these a try!




Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs

Ingredients:

8 eggs

1 cup cold water


Directions:

Plug in instant pot and place trivet in the bottom with the handles up.  Pour cold water into the bottom.  Place the eggs on top of the trivet being careful not to touch the sides.  

Secure lid in place and turn the knob on top to the Seal position.  

Push Manual and adjust time to 5 minutes.  The Instant Pot will start counting down from 5 once it reaches the correct temperature.  Once it beeps, leave the eggs in there for 5 more minutes.  

Meanwhile, prepare a bowl of ice water.

Once the timer on the Instant Pot gets to 5 again, move the knob to vent being careful to avoid the steam coming out.  After the pressure has released, remove the lid and use tongs to take the eggs out.

Place eggs in ice water for 10 min.  

That's it!

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Chocolate Covered Cream Balls

Several years ago, I sampled a Milk Chocolate Coconut at See's Candies.  It was love at first bite.  Ever since then I have made a mandatory stop every time I went into the mall to get one of these delicious chocolates.  I love them so much !  However, there are two things I didn't like about them.  1) I had to go to the mall to get them, and 2) they are SO expensive.  I think the last time I was there I paid about 75 cents for 1 chocolate.

Healthier Chocolate Banana Muffins

 I know, I know.  We already have like 5 banana muffins posted on this blog.  I have put off posting this recipe because of that fact, but here's the thing.  While those muffins are all delicious and great in their own way, when I have ripe bananas you know I'm either making these muffins or banana bread.  More often, these muffins because they are perfect for a grab and go snack or breakfast.  My family LOVES these muffins! They have such a deep chocolate flavor and are so moist.  What my family doesn't think about, but I love, are that these muffins are healthier than your average muffin.  They are made with whole wheat flour, coconut oil, greek yogurt for extra protein, and have less sugar that most other muffins.  These are best warm (they can be reheated in the microwave for 10 seconds) and those bites with melted chocolate chips are the absolute best!
