Bacon Deviled Eggs
Description
The eggs are hard boiled, peeled, and halved, with yolks separated and processed with mayonnaise, heavy cream, yellow mustard, salt, and pepper into a smooth mixture. This rich filling contrasts with the firm egg white shells. Smoked paprika sprinkled over the top imparts a subtle smoky flavor and a hint of color. The crumbled cooked bacon contributes a salty, crispy element, while minced chives add a fresh, mild onion aroma.
This appetizer is typically served chilled and works well for gatherings or as an elegant snack. Using a piping bag ensures neat, attractive dollops of filling. Small, well-sized bacon pieces stick better to the creamy topping and provide satisfying texture in each bite.
Ingredients
- 12 egg peeled and cut in half, hard boiled
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 4 lices Bacon cooked and crumbled
- 1/4 cup chive minced
Instructions
- Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Place the yolks in the bowl of a food processor and place the whites on a serving tray.
- Add the mayonnaise, heavy cream, mustard and salt and pepper to the food processor; process until smooth.
- Place the egg yolk mixture in a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe the filling into the cavity of each white.
- Sprinkle smoked paprika over the eggs. Top with bacon and chives and serve.
Notes
- Prepare extra eggs to accommodate any difficulty peeling without compromising quantity.
- A piping bag with a large star tip creates neat, decorative filling; a plastic bag with a corner cut is a convenient alternative.
- Keep bacon crumbles small for better adherence to the creamy filling.
