Deviled Egg Recipe
These classic deviled eggs made with 6 simple ingredients one of them being boiled eggs! The yolk becomes creamy and smooth!
Servings: 12 deviled eggs
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Paprika for garnish
Instructions
- Place the eggs in a medium pot. Cover with cold water by one inch. Set over medium heat and bring to a boil. As soon as the water reaches a boil, remove from heat and cover. Let sit for 15 minutes. Remove from pot and set in an ice bath to cool.
- Once cool, peel hard boiled eggs. Cut the eggs in half and scoop the yolks into a large bowl. Set the egg whites aside on a large platter and place in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
- Mash the egg yolks with the back of a fork, then stir in mayonnaise, Dijon, lemon juice, salt and pepper and mix until well combined. Scoop the mixture into a sturdy zip top bag. Snip off the corner, and using it like a pastry bag, pipe the filling into the prepared egg white shells. Garnish with paprika and serve immediately.
Notes
Storage: Deviled eggs are best eaten the day they are made, but can be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 2-3 days.
Make Ahead Tip: The eggs themselves can be hard-boiled up to a week in advance. Store them in the fridge until you are ready to make the deviled eggs.
