Instant Pot Egg Loaf

[@sunshineiv1]

I just did this today also, but I used a 7" cake pan. Cooked it for 7 min., cooled for 5 min. then quick release and took it out of the instant pot turned it upside down and it was perfect. I think you had to cook yours longer because of the bowl shape. What a great way to cook eggs.

[@phoebeflagg2694]

Great idea. My Scottish friend taught me the British way to make egg salad for tiny High Tea sandwiches: Add a tiny bit of Champagne mustard, white pepper,, minced celery, and minced white part of green onion. Very subtle and Lovely!

[@karleedu]

I just made this this morning! I have a 3 quart and used a smaller Pyrex bowl with 4 eggs. They turned out PERFECT!!!!! I hate making hard boiled eggs the old fashioned way, so this is the way I'm going to do it from now on! Thanks, Jeffery!

[@mummsiej6179]

Followed your recipe (cook 20, 5 NR and sit for 5) and mine turned out PERFECT!! Nothing was green or brown like when I did the 5/5/5 eggs in the IP then I still had to peel them which is iffy : ) My egg salad this way was easy and yummy!! Keep the recipes coming, love your channel. Thanks, Lj

[@angelicramirez8098]

Boiled eggs in the instapot only take 5 min in the shell to cook. Quick release and the shell comes off so easy. I would try this in the bowl. For 5 min

[@johnm6972]

Yeah, the recipe was in my cook book that came with mine. I agree. I did 6 jumbo eggs in 6 minutes.

[@tobarstep]

I do 2 min under pressure and 2 min natural release and that gives me perfectly cooked hard boiled eggs. I do 1 min natural release if I want medium. I'd definitely try this at only 5 minutes the first time.

[@Cattitude48]

I agree.

[@Cattitude48]

I agree. Overcooked eggs are tough in texture.

[@missjewells5063]

Are you guys using the egg loaf method? If you’re taking about just regular hard boiled eggs, that’s different.

[@susanhouser3676]

Love making boiled eggs in my Instant Pot. Perfect every time.

[@FrogWhizzer]

Seriously you do not need 20 minutes to cook those eggs! If you don’t trust 5 try 10! But your killing them at 20 man! Love your recipes keep them coming!

[@tammyj3830]

Green around the egg yolks means they’re over cooked.

[@Cattitude48]

I agree.

[@joanneblack8126]

Jeffrey, When you slid the egg loaf out of the bowl I immediately thought quiche! Crustless, but still quiche for the keto crowd!

[@linda7726]

Hi Jeff! Good shortcut but maybe less time on eggs. Try also making a aluminum foil sling around bowl to easily lift out! Thanks for sharing🙂

[@kathydoubleu6826]

5-7 minutes works fine for an egg loaf and you get a cooked, tender loaf not over cooked and rubbery like this.

[@lilyt5855]

I don't know about 20 minutes... I make boiled eggs in the shell in the IP all the time in 3 min. I can see how it would take somewhat more time all together in a bowl, but twenty minutes seems very long to me.

[@MQWTY]

Yaaasss!!! Potato salad here I come!!! What a time saver your a genius!

[@allenmajorovic4451]

I'm thinking a pastry cutter would make an even quicker job of making egg salad. No turning out and you chop the eggs in the same bowl in which they're cooked. Add mayo, salt, pepper and you're done.

[@nikkiflowers4241]

thats what i use as well and oh so easy for the chopping

[@breezybest6064]

I ALWAYS use a pastry cutter and nothing works better for cutting up eggs for egg salad, BUT I must have some regular French's yellow mustard in my egg salad along with the ingredients you listed.

[@brilliantatbreakfast]

Having seen one of the new pyrex bowls explode and shatter in a microwave, I'd be a bit concerned about compromising the glass in the Instant Pot. Apparently the new pyrex (which you can identify by "pyrex" being in lower-case; the original pyrex is labeled PYREX) is a different kind of glass. The older PYREX is made of borosilicate glass, which is a lot more resistant to thermal changes than the newer "pyrex", which is made of soda-lime glass. BUT....on the other hand, the company that makes PYREX now (Corelle, which also makes Corningware) is merging with Instant Pot, so one would think that if there ARE any issues, they would be worked on to create a solution. At any rate, we may be getting some fun new cookware designed specifically for Instant Pot.

[@johnm6972]

Glade both of corning ware sets I have are of clear pyrex and not the green. I havent seen any with the green tint other then anchor hocking and fire king. I had a friend who hade a anchor hocking 13 by 9 cake pan blow up in her face after pulling it out of the 350 degree Fahrenheit oven back in the 1990s.

[@donnanorris2939]

brilliantatbreakfast Microwave cooking is different from pressure cooking = (Instant Pot cooking.)

[@susangarrette9683]

Love egg salad. I added salt pepper and finely chopped onions.

[@jecriggs]

When I steam my eggs using a double boiler, I steam them for 13 minutes for perfect hard cooked. I can't imagine that pressure cooking eggs should take longer because one of the big benefits of pressure cooking is that it takes less time than conventional cooking. Just saying.

[@gaga4goats584]

Not to mention the added time to get it to pressure

[@carolchurch3727]

I'm soo doing this. Methed this Easter weekend for my potato salad .luv it ty Jeff for this one.

[@cathydanks8908]

Wow. Just wow. I did just what you said and these were perfect. I'm doing it this way from now on. 💖💖💖

[@OutlawTorn33]

I can confirm that a dozen eggs at 4 minutes in one of the metal pans that Jeff uses for the Creme Brulee works perfectly (do not put the lid on).

[@sweetboo1022]

I've been using my IP for this purpose for about a year now and I generally do 7 eggs for 7 minutes with a quick release but I do not use a bowl like that because it is deeper in the middle and you end up over cooking the sides. I use either a metal bowl I got at a garage sale or a square corning ware dish I've had for millennia and they both are flat bottomed so every egg cooks the same. I have not had any green egg yolks and don't get that weird dry edges that you want to peel off. It really is a good way to make eggs for salads or just for the doggos :)

[@DonnaMSchmid]

What a great hack! On the other hand, I think you WAY overcooked them (hence the green around the yolks). Have you tried it without the extra 5 minutes "natural release" timing?

[@whoseyourchef2160]

IMHO 20 minutes is way too long, I could see 10 then 5 minute natural release.

[@14Marathons]

Awesome! I love egg salad...this makes it so much easier...Thank you! Always look forward to your videos and love the channel. Cheers!

[@shirleymut]

I always look up a recipe here first when I want to cook something & today it's egg salad. I just wanted to add a tip I use...instead of cutting up the eggs with a knife, I put on a glove & smush the eggs with my hands, super easy

[@ianrimerman2982]

Funny that I watch this video after I just got done making eggs in my instant pot. This is a great idea and I’ll be utilizing it to make some delicious egg salad. Thank you Jeff

[@SR-ss5tu]

20 minutes? Mine took 5 and were perfectly hard boiled. Can this be done for a soft boiled egg loaf?

[@TeamFish15]

Cooked way too long brother. I cooked 6 on 5’ w/ 5’ natural release w/ no problem. Another tip... instead of putting eggs on cutting board, just put them in the bowl you’re going to make your egg salad in and use a sturdy wire whisk to chop up the eggs to desired consistency. Less mess. Cheers!😊

[@missjewells5063]

Even better, use a Chop-Stir, it’s the best IP chopping/breaking up took. Amazon.

[@MichealBacon]

Eggs respond to heat very well and cook very fast. 10 minute in my InstaPot with a 5 minute cool down then quick release and i have NO green eggs - they are cooked perfectly. Total time cooking is actually 15 minutes, the 5 minute "cool down" is actually very hot still.

[@KelvinsKitchen]

Amazing eggs loaf. Looked delicious!

[@bobbyj3701]

The RULE for a IP Hard Boiled egg IS 5 Mins Jeff! Your DIFFERENCE is that you are cooking PIP style! ..with broken eggs! :)

[@colleenbeamer6403]

Love egg salad. Years ago, I got a tip about adding a bit of dry mustard to the egg salad to give it a bit of zip. I always do this. Makes egg salad so much tastier, in my opinion, but to each his own, right?

[@amandaallton3291]

Colleen Beamer I just put mustard in mine. So good!

[@colleenbeamer6403]

@@amandaallton3291 Isn't it, though! Gives it just enough zip to take away the blandness! At least I think so! :-)

[@kmush01]

I add a bit of regular Dijon Mustard...adds a nice taste to the egg salad.

[@sewlove]

What a great idea.

[@tyedye571]

This looks like an excellent sort cut. 20 minutes seems like a long time though. When I boil eggs, it only takes 15 minutes.

[@darquequeen2323]

Great “hack”! I looove egg salad, but hate having to hard boil then peel the shell off them. Going to try this as soon as I can get more eggs!

[@pappystern2955]

BRILLIANT!! After watching your video, it kinda made me wonder if an omlettte could be made the same same way. However this time, scramble the eggs in that same type of bowl and add your favorite ingredients. Thoughts?

[@kimberlyskidmore6171]

Love this idea.

[@missjewells5063]

It can

[@SalLeeHolland]

Great way to do it. I was surprised though that you ate them with just the dressing on them, as you always go for extra flavor. Nothing wrong with that though. I do salt and pepper with the Mayo, a tiny bit of mustard. I also add crumbled blue cheese! Not a lot, but just enough to give it that little bit of kick to it.

[@Tsukshiro]

Why are the eggs brown around the edge when you take them out? I have seen this done before by a girl on KZbin named Flo. Cool idea.

They aren't but some are lightly tinged from the non-stick spray once cooked. Actually gives it additional flavor.

[@alixhice]

Dumb question, but do the eggs taste the same using this method?

[@catherinevalli6830]

MATERIAL MATTERS! use only a STAINLESS bowl for the egg loaf. it's like baking: anything in a stainless (or metal) pan will conduct heat uniformly, thus cook faster. a glass bowl or pan will heat the edges first while the center will take much longer. i cook the egg loaf for four minutes (using no more than 6 eggs at a time) on high pressure. 20 minutes for eggs only gives you an overcooked, tough MESS. just use stainless. i promise 4 minutes will be sufficient, and produce a much better result.

[@cindyholmes4354]

try some mustard and black pepper, egg salad divine!!

And remember to add some dill weed to any egg, potato, tuna salad recipe. Gives another layer of flavor. 🥗 Compliments the mayo nicely.

Chop up with the fork as you go .. reduces the effort and dishes you dirty... Protip .. use the insta pot metal pot to mix everything up in .. and throw a lid on it.. boom even less dirty dishes . Do this while making your breakfast and have it nice and cold , ready to go for lunch . super easy

You should have way more followers. You make everything so simple without being banal. Lots of fresh ideas without being too complicated, and everything is perfect for folks like me who are either too busy or too tired to put on a big production in the kitchen when they get home after work. I appreciate your posts, thank you. As a side note, I always put my boiled eggs in a large Ziploc bag at the end. Then I use the back side of my chef's knife (_not_ the sharp edge) to chop them up right through the bag. On the one hand that wastes a bag, but there's zero cleanup.
