    Tips for Classic Keto Deviled Eggs:

    The Perfect Hard-Boiled Eggs

    • Eggs - start with room temperature eggs. They won't cool down the water as much and will cook more evenly. Keep on your counter top for 15 - 20 minutes.
    • Water - Add enough water to cover the eggs by about 1.5 inches. When the water comes to a rolling boil, turn off the heat and let the eggs sit for 12 - 14 minutes.
    • Peeling the Eggs - Peel one egg to see if it's cooked to your liking. There's many factors that affect cooking time and temperature, such as altitude, pot size, how much heat your pot retains, etc. Start by lightly tapping your egg against a flat surface so that the shells don't pierce the eggs. If you want the yolks cooked more, leave in the hot pan for 5 more minutes, or heat on the stovetop for 1-2 more minutes

    Gently scoop out the yolk with a small spoon and add all the seasoning to a small bowl. Mash the yolks with a fork until you get a smooth texture. Feel free to add extra seasonings at this step. See below for suggestions!

    Variations:

    • Not a mayo fan? Substitute with: 
      • avocado - replace with the same amount of avocado
      • vegetable oil - start with 2 Tablespoons of oil and add more as needed to get a smooth texture
      • hummus - add a tangy kick with this chickpea spread
      • yogurt - use a thicker Greek or French yogurt
      • sour cream - for an extra rich and creamy filling
    • Toppings:
      • bacon bits
      • relish
      • avocado
      • tomatoes
      • radish
      • chives
      • blue cheese or feta cheese
      • smoked salmon or lox
      • olives

    Storage:

    These classic keto deviled eggs can be made ahead the day before and stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.

    Instructions
     

    Boiling the Eggs

    • Add your eggs into a pot in a single layer and add enough water to cover by about 1.5 inches above the eggs. Cover the pot and turn the heat to high. When the water comes to a rolling boil, turn off the heat and leave the pot covered for 13 - 15 minutes. Check one egg to see if it's cooked to your liking.
    • Remove the shells under cold running water and place them on a paper towel. Slice the eggs in half and carefully scoop out the yolks into a small bowl.

    Assemble the Filling

    • Add the mayo, vinegar, dijon mustard, and garlic powder to your egg yolks and start mashing them together until you get a smooth mixture. Season with salt & pepper to taste. For a smoother texture, you can use a hand mixer or food processor.
    • Fill each egg white half with even amounts of the yolk mixture. Use a small spoon or fill the yolk mixture into a piping bag.
    • Garnish with chopped parsley and sprinkle smoked paprika on top

      I tried your suggestion to add hummus, and it was so good. I never would have thought to add humus to a devil egg!

      We made these for a potluck for a family event recently, and they were so tasty. We didn't have paprika, so I used a little cayenne pepper on top instead. Yum!
