Ingredients
  • 6 large hard-boiled eggs well-cooked
  • 1 avocado peeled and seeded
  • 1 lemon juice of 1
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 2 tablespoons yellow onion finely minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro finely minced, reserve some for garnish
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste
  • jalapeños sliced for garnish

Equipment

Method
 

Directions
  1. Begin by hard boiling your eggs. Place the eggs in a pot, cover them with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover the pot and remove it from heat. Let the eggs sit for about 12 minutes before transferring them to an ice bath to cool. Once cooled, peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise.
  2. Carefully remove the yolks from the egg whites and place them in a mixing bowl. Set the egg whites aside on a serving platter.
  3. Add the peeled and seeded avocado to the bowl with the yolks. Pour in the lemon juice and sprinkle in the cumin, minced onion, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Use a fork to mash everything together until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.
  4. Spoon the avocado mixture back into the hollowed egg whites. You can use a piping bag for a fancy touch or simply use a spoon for a rustic look.
  5. Top each deviled egg with a slice of jalapeño and a sprinkle of additional cilantro for a pop of color and flavor.
  6. Place the filled eggs in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes to chill before serving. Enjoy your delightful Avocado Deviled Eggs!

Notes

  • For a lighter version, consider using Greek yogurt instead of avocado.
  • Experiment with red onion for a sharper flavor.
  • Dill can be used instead of cilantro for a different taste.
