What You’ll Need to make Spicy Deviled Eggs
- Eggs – 6 large eggs, white or brown, hard boiled, peeled and cut in half.
- Mayonnaise – We use regular full fat mayonnaise in this recipe but lite mayonnaise may also be used.
- Dijon Mustard – Has a deeper flavor but yellow mustard, honey mustard or spicy mustard may be substituted.
- Pantry Spices – Paprika, dill, cayenne pepper, salt & pepper.
How to Make Spicy Deviled Eggs
This recipe is such a simple one, the most time consuming part is usually cooking the eggs!
There are many ways to hard boil eggs, but we prefer the old fashioned method of cooking the eggs in a pot for 10-12 minutes, featured on the Get Crackin’ website.
Boil the eggs, cool, cut in half and add the boiled yolks to a small bowl. Set egg whites aside for now.
To the bowl add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, paprika, dill, cayenne and salt and pepper. We like our deviled eggs spicy but you can easily use less cayenne to your preference.
Mix everything together with a fork, breaking up the boiled egg yolks until well combined and mostly smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Put mixture into a small zip top bag (or piping bag). Cut corner from zip top bag and pipe into egg halves.
Sprinkle lightly with paprika and dill and refrigerate until ready to serve. Try not to eat them all in one sitting (unless no one is watching!). Enjoy!
