Making Keto Deviled Eggs
If you’re looking for a low-carb snack or appetizer, these keto deviled eggs are perfect. They’re simple to make and keep all the classic flavors you enjoy.
Key Ingredients & Tips for Keto Eggs
- Mayonnaise Choice: Use a full-fat, avocado oil-based mayonnaise for the best taste and to keep things keto-friendly. Read the label carefully.
- Vinegar Boost: A little apple cider vinegar brightens up the flavor without adding extra carbs. Don’t skip this step!
- Easy Mashing: Make sure your egg yolks are well mashed. This helps create a really smooth and creamy filling for your eggs.
What You Need for Keto Deviled Eggs
- 6 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled
- 1/4 cup full-fat mayonnaise (keto-friendly)
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- Paprika, for garnish
- Optional: finely chopped chives or dill for garnish
⏱️ Time: 20 minutes🍽️ Yields: 12 halves
How to Make Keto Deviled Eggs
Step 1: Prep the Eggs
Carefully slice each hard-boiled egg in half lengthwise. Gently scoop out the yellow yolks and place them into a small mixing bowl. Set the egg white halves aside on a serving platter.
Step 2: Create the Filling
Use a fork to mash the egg yolks completely. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper to the mashed yolks. Stir everything together until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Step 3: Fill the Egg Whites
Spoon the yolk mixture back into the empty egg white halves. You can use a small spoon for a rustic look, or a piping bag with a star tip for a more elegant presentation.
Step 4: Garnish and Chill
Lightly sprinkle paprika over the filled deviled eggs for color. If you like, add some fresh chives or dill. Cover the platter and chill the deviled eggs in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving.
📝 Final Note
These keto deviled eggs are best eaten fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Key Ingredients & Tips for Rich Deviled Eggs

How to Make Million Dollar Deviled Eggs
Step 1: Get Your Eggs Ready
Slice each hard-boiled egg in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out all the yolks and put them into a medium mixing bowl. Place the empty egg white halves on a serving plate or tray.
Step 2: Mix the Creamy Filling
Mash the egg yolks very well with a fork until they are smooth. Add the mayonnaise, softened cream cheese, sweet pickle relish, yellow mustard, and hot sauce to the mashed yolks. Mix everything until the filling is perfectly smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to your liking.
Step 3: Add the Bacon
Gently fold in most of the crumbled cooked bacon into the yolk mixture. Save a little bit of bacon to sprinkle on top later for garnish.
Step 4: Fill and Garnish
Spoon or pipe the rich yolk filling back into each egg white half. Garnish your deviled eggs with the remaining crumbled bacon and a sprinkle of paprika for a lovely finish.
Step 5: Chill Before Serving
Cover the deviled eggs and chill them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This helps the flavors blend together beautifully and keeps them nice and firm.
📝 Final Note
For the best taste, prepare these a few hours ahead of time to allow the flavors to deepen. Store any leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge.
