What is the easiest way to make hard boiled eggs?

There are many easy ways to hard boil eggs. We’ve found this overnight crock pot hard boiled eggs to be very simple but also highly recommend the air fryer hard boiled eggs method here as well.

How do you peel eggs?

When your egg is cold, after removing from the ice bath, gently tap the egg on the counter while rotating the egg. You want to gently break the shell all over the hard boiled egg. Gently use your thumb to peel away the shell from the egg white.

Equipment

  • 1 crock pot (slow cooker)

Ingredients
  

  • 12 eggs larg

Instructions

  • Place eggs in a single layer in the crock pot.

  • Pour cold water into crock pot until water covers eggs a little.
  • Place lid on crock pot.
  • Set crock pot to cook on low for 8 hours or high for 2.5 hours.
  • Remove eggs with a slotted spoon and place in a large bowl of ice water on the counter. This ice water bath will stop the cooking process and make the egg membranes separate from the shells to make them easier to peel. Keep in ice bath for at least 15 minutes.

Notes

  • Refrigerate hard boiled eggs after they have cooled all the way. These eggs can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
  • To peel the eggs, carefully crack all the way around the egg and peel the shell away from the egg gently.
  • We prefer to use large eggs or extra large eggs from the store. You can use fresh eggs though they are harder to peel.
  • This recipe calls for a dozen eggs but you can cook more or less at a time as long as they are not over crowded in the slow cooker.
  • This recipe cooks the eggs so they have a firm yolk, without being overcooked. If you want a soft boiled egg with a runny yolk and softer egg whites, cook for less time.
