The perfect way to make hard boiled eggs that peel easily is finally here! This Easy Hard Boiled Eggs recipe is as close to perfection as you can get! If you’re looking for a healthy breakfast that’s super easy to make and only takes a couple minutes to prep, you’ve come to the right place.
The first thing you’re going to do is to take out a sauce pan big enough to fit all of your eggs in. You want to make sure that your pan is big enough so that your eggs fit in a single layer, not on top of each other.
Put your eggs into your pan, fill your pan with enough water to cover 1” over your eggs, and add in 1/2 teaspoon of salt to your pan. However many eggs you make is completely up to you!
The next thing you need to do is to slowly bring your eggs to a boil. To do this, turn your burner on medium heat for 3 minutes then on high heat until they start to boil. They should start to boil after a couple minutes on high heat.
Once boiling, let your eggs continue to boil for 1 minute.
Turn your burner off, remove your easy hard boiled eggs from the heat, and cover them. Keep them covered for around 10 minutes.
Ice Bath
Take out a bowl or container, fill it with ice water, and use a slotted spoon to put your eggs into it. Your eggs should bathe in this ice water for 15-20 minutes!
Remove your eggs from their bath and get ready to peel them! The easiest way to peel these? Tap both ends down on something (they’ll crack) and your shell should peel right off in a single piece.
For the perfect breakfast you can pair this recipe with our Iced Coffee Protein Shake!
