Ingredient List
How to make deviled eggs without mayo
STEP 1: Place the eggs into a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the eggs to a rolling boil. Turn the heat off, cover the pan and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 15 minutes. Drain the hot water from the eggs, and rinse them in cold water.
STEP 2: Once they are cool enough to handle peel the eggs (see tips below for peeling). Once they are peeled use a sharp knife to slice them in half lengthwise.
STEP 3: Use a small spoon to scoop out the cooked yolks from the egg whites. Set the egg white halves aside, and place the egg yolks, Greek yogurt and mustard into the bowl of a food processor.
STEP 4: Blend the egg yolk mixture into a creamy texture. Season to taste with sea salt.
STEP 5: Use a teaspoon, a piping bag, or pastry bag to fill the egg whites with the deviled egg filling.
STEP 6: Once the egg whites are filled, serve or garnish the eggs with chopped olives, pickle relish, chopped roasted red pepper, pickles, or peppers, and a little paprika, sea salt and black pepper.
Tips & Tricks
- If you are making deviled eggs for a crowd, make a few extra just in case the egg whites break apart or you need to adjust the texture of the filling.
- Don’t overcook the eggs, once the water boils, cover the pan and turn the heat off. After 15 minutes, the eggs will be cooked through.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to the water to raise the egg whites’ PH level, which will help prevent them from sticking to the shell.
- For best results, place the eggs under cold running water or an ice bath to cool them off completely which will make them easier to peel.
- Tap the egg on the bottom and then gently roll it on a countertop or tabletop with your palm; start peeling at the large end.
No mayo deviled egg filling variations
Besides Greek yogurt, there are many other fillings you can use for deviled eggs that don’t involve mayonnaise. Here are some suggestions:
Guacamole or Mashed Avocado– Mix a quarter cup of mashed avocado or guacamole in place of Greek yogurt for a creamy texture and rich flavor.
Sour Cream – Sour cream is tangy and is similar to Greek yogurt and will work as a replacement.
Hummus – Replace the yogurt with hummus for a savory kick.
Cream cheese– Replace yogurt with approximately 2 teaspoons of whipped cream cheese per egg.
Cottage Cheese – When blended smooth, cottage cheese is a milder alternative to Greek yogurt deviled eggs.
Creme Fraiche – Is thick and creamy similar to Greek yogurt, but is less tangy and make a delicious filling for deviled eggs.
