How to make deviled eggs with bacon
Bacon deviled eggs are an easy appetizer recipe and are perfect for a party. If you have a larger crowd, double or triple the recipe.
- Boil your eggs for 8 minutes then cool them in ice water. Tap the ends on your counter then gently roll them to break the shell before peeling it off. I like to quickly rinse them under cold water to make sure no bits of shell remains.
- Crisp the bacon and cook the onion. Easy!
- Now cut the eggs in half and remove the yolks. Mix them with the crispy bacon, caramelized onion, mayo, mustard, vinegar, and cheddar cheese.
- Then spoon the filling back into the egg whites and top with some bacon bits, green onions, and paprika.
Can bacon deviled eggs be made ahead of time?
Absolutely they can!
The eggs can be boiled up to 5 days in advance. Then 2 days before you want to serve them you can finish prepping. Make the filling and keep it in a covered container in your fridge. Put the egg whites on a plate and cover them tightly. Then all you have to do it quickly fill the egg whites and garnish them before serving.
How to fill deviled eggs with bacon
Sometimes the filling for deviled eggs can be piped into the egg white. But because of the bacon, cheese, and onions in this recipe, it is best to spoon the filling. I find that it is easiest to use a small spoon for this job.
