Pressure Cooker Hard Boiled Egg Loaf
Peeling Eggs can be such a chore.
My Pressure Cooker Easy Hard Boiled Eggs recipe is one of the most talked about in the Instant Pot Community.
It’s still a great recipe for cooking Hard Boiled Eggs in the Shell.
Like for bringing on Picnics as a snack.
The Eggs literally jump out of the shells on their own.
But, what if you could avoid that one step?
Would you do it?
Cast of Ingredients for Pressure Cooker Hard Boiled Egg Loaf
This idea is pure genius.
I don’t know who first thought of this, but I love it.
It has made my life easier, as we love Egg Salad in this house.
Two sizes of Loaf Pans will fit into a 6 Quart Pressure Cooker.
This method is PERFECT for my Pressure Cooker Summer Picnic Potato Salad.
Check the recipe, as this method has been incorporated into recipe!
Grease the Loaf Pan
This is the single most important step!
Why – try eliminating it and get back to me. 🙂
Use a Oil Mister with Oil (I like to use Grapeseed Oil or Coconut) and spray the Loaf Pan well.
You can also just rub some oil into the cute little Loaf Pan.
Grease it well.
The Mini Loaf Pans are great if you want to use my Pressure Cooker Turkey Meatloaf for mini Loaves!
Crack in the Eggs
You can see in my Small 5.5 Inch Loaf Pan, the Egg Loaf will be thick.
Had I used my 6.37 Inch Loaf Pan, the Eggs would be spread out more and the cook time OR the Natural Pressure Release (meaning, doing nothing, but waiting) time, would be shorter.
You can use as many Eggs as will fit.
Make sense? If not, let me know in the comments below and I will update this recipe to further explain.
Salt and Pepper the Eggs
If you want to add Salt and Pepper, by golly, just do it!
You can also use my Homemade Seasoned Salt.
Or, don’t add any seasonings.
Place Loaf Pan of Eggs in Pressure Cooker
Is this not the easiest thing ever?
Like in the history of the World?
Perfectly Cooked Hard Boiled Eggs
Look Ma, no green rings!!!
Assuming you are cooking in the mini 5.5 Inch Loaf pan, you will need to let the Pressure Cooker sit for an extra minute, before releasing the pressure.
If you are cooking 6 Eggs in the 6.37 Inch Loaf Pan, less time will be needed, until you release the Pressure. This is the size I use for my Pressure Cooker Greek Gyros!
Why? – Because the more Eggs you use (in whatever size Pan you use), the thicker the Pressure Cooker Hard Boiled Egg Loaf will be.
Obviously, if using a larger Pressure Cooker, you can use up to a 7.5 Inch Loaf Pan. It is the perfect size for my Simply Delicious Buttermilk Banana Bread.
You may need to experiment to find your Perfect time!
Chop Up the Eggs
Your Pressure Cooker Hard Boiled Egg Loaf is ready to be chopped.
Wanna see what I do instead of chopping?
Push the Loaf Though a Baking Rack
For nice little cubes, use a Baking Rack and push the Egg Loaf through.
At this point, you might be questioning how you go about saving these Pressure Cooker Hard Boiled Egg Loaf cubes in the refrigerator.
After all, you been making Hard Boiled Eggs the Old Fashion Way.
The Eggs in Shells stay nice and fresh in the fridge.
Chopped Eggs Ready to Use on a Whim
I use a Reditainer BFA Free Container to store my Eggs after chopping
I can easily grab whatever I need and pop it into my Salad, whenever I want.

How the hell did I not think of this method? Hehehehe.

I see how long to let it sit but nothing about how long to cook it or at what setting, and presumably there should be water in the pot, etc. What am I missing?
Hi Amy. The amount of water is now in the recipe…sorry about that. Jill
What would you suggest for cooking & release times if I use my 6″ round cake pan?
How long and what temp would I use to make egg loaves on the oven. I like the sliced look and want to make them for a church luncheon tomorrow but can’t take my IP with me
