Description
This is the best deviled eggs recipe with a creamy filling and a sprinkle of paprika.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- kosher salt and ground black pepper (to taste)
- paprika (for garnish)
Instructions
- Boil the eggs. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Reduce the heat to low (or off) to ensure the water is no longer boiling or has any bubbles. Use a skimmer to place the eggs in the water. Then, increase the heat back to high and set a timer for 14 minutes.
- Make an ice water bath. While the eggs are boiling, prepare an ice water bath and set aside. After 14 minutes, remove the eggs from the water and place them in the ice water bath.
- Peel and slice the eggs. Once the eggs have cooled completely, peel them and slice in half lengthwise. With a small spoon, remove the yolks to a mixing bowl and place the egg whites on a plate.
- Make the filling. Mash the yolks with a fork and add the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper. Stir everything together until it’s smooth. Pro tip: If you’d like it extra smooth and fluffy, you can also use a hand mixer.
- Fill and serve. Use a spoon to add a portion of the deviled egg mixture back into the hole of each egg white. Add a little sprinkle of paprika for garnish.
