  • Prep Time: 15 minutes
  • Cook Time: 20 minutes
  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x
  • Method: Stovetop
  • Cuisine: American

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 ripe medium avocado
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Hard boil the eggs: Place eggs in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a rolling boil, then remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 10-12 minutes. Drain, transfer to an ice bath, and let cool completely before carefully peeling.
  2. Step 2: Prepare the egg whites and yolks: Slice each peeled hard-boiled egg lengthwise in half. Gently scoop out the yolks and place them in a medium bowl. Arrange the egg white halves on a serving platter.
  3. Step 3: Create the avocado filling: Add the ripe avocado, lime juice, Dijon mustard, sea salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the egg yolks. Mash with a fork or potato masher until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.
  4. Step 4: Fill the egg whites: Spoon the avocado-yolk mixture into a piping bag (or a ziptop bag with a corner snipped off) and pipe the filling evenly into each egg white cavity. Alternatively, use a small spoon to fill them.
  5. Step 5: Garnish and serve: Lightly dust the filled deviled eggs with smoked paprika before serving immediately. For best results and to prevent browning, serve within an hour, or refrigerate covered for up to 2 hours.

Notes

  • To keep your deviled eggs fresh and vibrant, store them tightly covered in the refrigerator and enjoy within 2 hours to prevent the avocado from browning.
  • These delicious deviled eggs are best enjoyed chilled or at room temperature; reheating is not recommended as it can alter the texture and flavor, especially of the creamy avocado filling.
  • Serve these healthy, creamy bites as an elegant appetizer for brunches, potlucks, or light gatherings, presenting them on a vibrant platter to showcase their beautiful color.
  • Don't skimp on the fresh lime juice; it's not just for zesty flavor but also a secret weapon to help keep your avocado filling from browning too quickly, preserving its beautiful green hue.
