Easy and classic deviled eggs recipe with creamy filling and paprika topping. Perfect for parties, snacks, and holiday appetizers.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Paprika, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Reduce heat to low or turn off heat and gently place eggs in the water, then restore heat to high. Boil for 14 minutes.
  2. Prepare an ice water bath. Remove eggs from boiling water and place into ice bath. Cool completely.
  3. Peel eggs and slice in half lengthwise. Remove yolks carefully and place them into a small bowl. Arrange the egg whites on a serving plate.
  4. Mash yolks with a fork, then mix in mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  5. Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves. Sprinkle with paprika for a hint of color and flavor.
  6. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve chilled.

Notes

  • Use Dijon mustard for a flavorful yet mild tang as opposed to yellow mustard.
  • Boil eggs carefully to avoid green rings around yolks, which indicate overcooking.
  • For prettier filling, use a piping bag to fill the egg whites with yolk mixture.
  • Variations: Add bacon bits, chives, hot sauce, smoked salmon, or avocado to customize flavors.
  • Store deviled eggs covered in the fridge for up to 2 days for best freshness.
