Description
These Spooky Deviled Eggs are a fun and creepy Halloween treat, perfect for parties or family gatherings. Easy to make and customizable, they’re sure to be a crowd-pleaser!
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- Green food coloring (optional)
- 6 black olives, sliced into rings
- Red food coloring or hot sauce, for decoration
Instructions
- Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool.
- Peel the eggs carefully and slice them in half lengthwise. Scoop out the yolks into a mixing bowl.
- Mash the egg yolks with a fork and add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth. Add a few drops of green food coloring (if desired) and stir to combine.
- Spoon or pipe the filling into the hollowed egg whites. Mound the filling slightly for a dramatic effect.
- Place a black olive ring on top of the filling to create the ‘iris.’ Use a toothpick dipped in red food coloring or hot sauce to draw ‘veins’ on the egg whites, radiating out from the olive.
- Refrigerate the eggs until ready to serve. Arrange them on a spooky platter for the perfect Halloween vibe!
Notes
For a vegan version, use plant-based mayonnaise and swap eggs for avocado slices or tofu. Chill the eggs in an ice bath for easy peeling, and get creative with spooky designs like spider webs or monster faces.
