Simply cute Easter Egg Chicks made in the Instant Pot is incredibly easy and festive.
What a cute way to add a little extra to those deviled eggs! I am going to show you how easy it is to make deviled eggs in the Instant Pot and then convert them into Easter egg chicks.
Do you only see 8 little chicks in the picture above? Well, the others got devoured before I could even get a picture of them. I think their almost too cute to eat.
I couldn’t imagine making deviled eggs any other way than in the Instant Pot. The shells just peel right off so easily. I use the 5-5-5 method. That means I pressure cook all the eggs that are needed for 5 minutes. Then they require a 5-minute natural pressure release. Lastly, I place them in ice water for 5 minutes.
Once the eggs are complete, I then peel them and put them in a bowl. In order to make the chicks you can use a small knife to make a zig-zag pattern, use zig-zag scissors to help cut a pattern or use a zig-zag egg cutter made for eggs.
Remove the yellow inside part of the egg and place in a bowl. Add in 1/4 cup of miracle whip or mayo, 1 tablespoon of mustard and salt and pepper. Mix together with a fork. Once well combined, add back into the bottom part of the egg. Then place the top of the egg on top leaving space for the yellow filling to stick out.
Then use candy eyes and orange sprinkles for the eyes and nose of the chicks. Place in an egg tray or plate and enjoy!
