I have a confession to make…..I have never figured out how to make hard boiled eggs on the stove top. For some reason this skill is not one that is in my repertoire. Thankfully I have a trick up my sleeve that makes it so I never have to worry about making hard boiled eggs on the stove top…..I make Crock Pot Hard Boiled Eggs!
Yes it is true! You can use your trusty crock pot to hard boil eggs and they turn out magnificent! I mean seriously these are so dang easy to make! You don’t have to worry about boiling the water, watching over the eggs so they are not in the water to long, or any of the other issues that I seem to run into with hard boiling an egg on the stove top.
I put off making hard boiled eggs for years until I figured out I could use the crock pot. Now I make these all the time and John takes them to work for a snack, we slice them over salads, or just enjoy them on their own.

We use propane to cook, and when I wanted to boil eggs, found the tank was out. Found this solution, and am so pleased with the results. Thanks for your gifted cooking ideas. Rose Royce
Hi Rose, I am so glad this recipe helped out!
This is a great idea!
Does salt in the water make the eggs salty?
Have you tried it without the salt, and if so, how did that change things?
Thanks!
Hi, I could not taste the salt at all. It just helps the eggs peel better I think
Do the eggs need to be in a single layer or can I stack them up in the crock pot? Thanks!
That is a great idea, love using the crock pot for so many things. I bought an electric egg cooker, named Henrietta the hen, and it does a great job of making hard boiled eggs. If you want eggs faster, it is the way to go.
Thanks for the info, cause I love making homemade egg salad!

What a great idea! I”m the family deviled egg maker and boiling/peeling the eggs is the part I hate the most. I’ll have to try this out and see if it makes it any easier for me. Thanks!
