Gluten Free Deviled Eggs
Description
Creamy, classic gluten free deviled eggs made with 6 simple ingredients. Naturally gluten free and celiac-friendly, this easy appetizer is perfect for parties, holidays, and potlucks — ready in just 25 minutes.
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs, preferably 7–10 days old, for easier peeling
- ¼ cup mayonnaise, certified gluten free (Hellmann's, Duke's, or Primal Kitchen)
- 2 teaspoons Dijon or yellow mustard, certified gluten free
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar, or fresh lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper, or to taste
- Paprika or smoked paprika, for garnish
Instructions
- Boil the eggs. Place eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then cover, remove from heat, and let stand 12 minutes.
- Ice bath. Transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water and chill at least 10 minutes.
- Peel and halve. Peel under running water, slice each egg in half lengthwise, and place the yolks in a medium bowl. Arrange the whites cut-side up on a platter.
- Make the filling. Mash the yolks, then mix in mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth. For an ultra-silky texture, press yolks through a sieve or use a hand mixer.
- Fill the whites. Spoon or pipe the filling back into the egg whites.
- Chill and serve. Refrigerate at least 20 minutes, then dust with paprika before serving.
Equipment
- Saucepan
- Mixing Bowl
Notes
- Make ahead: Prep components up to 2 days in advance; store whites and filling separately and assemble within a few hours of serving.
- Storage: Keeps 2 days refrigerated in an airtight container. Discard after 2 hours at room temperature.
- Don't freeze: Whites turn rubbery and the filling separates.
- Dairy-free / no-mayo: Swap mayonnaise for mashed avocado with lime, or full-fat Greek yogurt.
- Celiac-safe: Always read current labels on mayonnaise and mustard and look for a certified gluten free seal.
