Print Recipe

A creamy, flavorful twist on classic deviled eggs using ripe avocado, pickled jalapeños, and fresh cilantro for a quick and easy appetizer perfect for parties.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
  • 1 ripe avocado, mashed
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped pickled jalapeños
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Smoked paprika for garnish

Instructions

  1. Place 6 large eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by about an inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then cover and remove from heat. Let sit for 10-12 minutes.
  2. Drain and immediately transfer eggs to an ice bath to cool for 5 minutes.
  3. Gently tap each egg on the counter to crack the shell, then peel under running water. Slice each egg in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the yolks into a mixing bowl.
  4. Add mashed avocado, finely chopped pickled jalapeños, chopped fresh cilantro, fresh lime juice, Greek yogurt (if using), garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the yolks.
  5. Mash and mix the yolks and avocado mixture together until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning if needed.
  6. Fill each egg white half with the creamy guacamole mixture using a spoon or piping bag.
  7. Sprinkle the tops with smoked paprika and garnish with a small cilantro leaf.
  8. Refrigerate the deviled eggs for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use eggs that are a few days old for easier peeling. If filling is too thick, add a splash of lime juice or olive oil to loosen. Avoid overmixing to keep creamy texture. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving to meld flavors. Can substitute pickled jalapeños with pickled banana peppers for milder heat or use dairy-free yogurt for a dairy-free option.
