Instant Pot Deviled Eggs

Ingredients for Instant Pot Deviled Eggs with Relish

6 eggs

¼ cup light mayonnaise

1 teaspoon yellow mustard

1–2 tablespoons sweet relish, to taste

Salt and pepper, to taste

A dash of hot sauce (Texas Pete or your favorite), optional

Paprika for garnish

1 cup water (for the Instant Pot)

How to Make Instant Pot Deviled Eggs with Relish

1. Arrange the eggs in the Instant Pot. You can place them directly in the inner pot, on the trivet, or in an egg rack.
2. Pour 1 cup of water into the pot.
3. Secure the lid and set the valve to sealing.
4. Set the Instant Pot to manual pressure for 5 minutes.
5. When the cooking time ends, allow a natural pressure release for 5 minutes.
6. Transfer the eggs to an ice bath for 5 minutes—this helps the shells peel off easily.
7. Peel the eggs and slice them lengthwise.
8. Remove the yolks and mash them in a bowl. Stir in the light mayonnaise, yellow mustard, sweet relish, a dash of hot sauce if using, and salt and pepper to taste. Adjust relish and seasoning as desired.
9. Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites.
10. Sprinkle with paprika and serve chilled.

Servings: 12 deviled halves (from 6 whole eggs)

Tips for Cooking and Storing

• To check egg freshness, place eggs in a bowl of water; discard any that float.
• Store deviled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator and eat within 3–4 days.
• For easier handling when removing eggs from the pot, use a slotted spoon, trivet, or egg rack.
