The creamiest, silkiest deviled eggs ever, that’s these avocado deviled eggs. All you need are five ingredients and a few minutes. Our recipe starts with already-cooked eggs; use our how-to for perfect hard-boiled eggs. Then get out your food processor to mix the egg yolks with avocado, mayonnaise, and lemon juice. Pipe the filling into the whites and chill before serving. If you pipe the filling with a star tip for forming ruffles, the eggs don’t need a garnish. Chopped chives or cilantro are lovely if you’re piping a simpler shape or spooning the filling into the whites. However you finish them, they are an ideal appetizer for your next party.

Piping the Filling Into the Egg Whites

If you don't have a piping bag and star tip, use a resealable plastic bag to pipe the filling into the whites. Place the filling in the bag, then snip off a bottom corner from the bag using scissors. Use the bag like a pastry bag to pipe the yolk mixture into the egg whites. 

Directions

  1. Peel and halve eggs:

    Peel eggs and cut in half, either lengthwise or crosswise.

  2. Scoop out yolks; arrange whites on platter:

    Carefully scoop out yolks, and arrange whites on a platter or tray.

  3. Mix yolks and remaining ingredients:

    In the bowl of a food processor, process egg yolks, avocado, lemon juice, and mayonnaise until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. Pipe yolk mixture into egg white halves:

    Transfer egg yolk mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe mixture carefully and very neatly into egg halves. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to use, up to 3 hours.
