Bring a stock pot or saucepan of water to a boil.

While the water is coming to a boil, fill a large bowl with cold water and place in the refrigerator.

Once the water is boiling, place the eggs into the water and bring to a simmer.

Set your timer for the desired time (10 minutes for lightly firm, 12 minutes for medium firm, or 14 minutes very firm).

Remove the eggs from boiling water when the timer goes off and place in the bowl of cold water.

Let cool for about 10 minutes.

Peel the eggs.

Store for later or serve and enjoy!

The virtues of making hard-boiled eggs in an Instant Pot can be summed up as follows: they peel like a dream and they come out perfectly every time!
Notes: 
I have this 6-qt Instant Pot, which is important only because the size of the pot may affect the timing. These instructions work perfectly for my Instant Pot, but it did take some trial and error to get the timing down.
For perfect Instant Pot soft-boiled eggs, follow instructions on this post.
The downside of hard-boiling eggs in an Instant Pot? The quantity you can do at one time. Unless you have an accessory that allows you to make tiers in your pot, you can't cram a dozen eggs onto the steamer rack without the eggs banging against one another and eventually cracking under the pressure.
I would recommend hard-boiling no more than 6 eggs at one time using the standard steamer insert.

Easy 5-Minute Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs

eggs, see notes above

Pour the 2 cups of water into the insert of the Instant Pot. (Note: Do measure 2 cups as opposed to using the markings on the inside of the insert.) Lay the steamer insert inside. Place eggs on top, spreading them out to ensure they are not touching one another.

Cover the pot. Using the manual button, set the pot to 5 minutes and high pressure. Make sure the valve on top is set to sealing. Fill a large bowl with ice and cold tap water.

When the 5 minutes are up, switch the valve to venting, let the steam escape for 1 minute, then carefully twist open the lid to avoid steaming your face. Transfer eggs to ice-water bath, let cool for 30 seconds or longer, then peel, season and eat.

I love the cooked eggs and I combine them with a recipe from a keto website. 

Perfect hard boiled eggs!  I have a Mini-Duo Instant Pot and the amount of water and 5 minute timing was exactly spot on.  The peeling, oh the peeling!  Thank you!

I've had an Instant Pot for a long time, left in the box because I was afraid to use it (all the warnings and the intense control panel).  Figured this  might be a good way to test it.  Followed your instructions cooking 5 eggs in the Duo and they are perfect, fell out of the shells.  Now I have the courage to try some of your other IP recipes.

Eggs are one of the most delicious foods in my diet. I love my Instant Pot and it is great to have a quick go-to recipe for hard-boiled eggs. What I do is set my Instant Pot on manual for 6 minutes. When it is finished, I release the steam, take the lid off, and plunge the eggs into an ice bath. Leave them there until they are cool then gently drop them from about 4 inches above your cutting board a couple of time, then roll them around, and the shell just slips off. I’ve tried a number of different methods through the years, and this is by far the most foolproof and easiest.

I use an air fryer rather than an IP,  400° for 12 min. I also put as many as I want with no issues. I do use a push pin to make a small hole in the large end of the egg. It helps the egg come out more symmetrical. The ice water cools them quickly so they stop cooking, and like you say, they nearly jump out of the shells. 

This Recipe is the PERFECT one...!!!
Many others have you cooking too many eggs at once and then doing a natural pressure release for wayyy too Long.
Thank You Alexandra; Now My eggs come out Delicious and Beautiful every time... 8)
