Guacamole Deviled Eggs

Guacamole Deviled Eggs – a classic recipe with a twist. Perfectly hard boiled eggs stuffed with a bright and flavorful guacamole, garnished with a sprinkle of chili powder and cilantro.

These guacamole deviled eggs are such a diverse spin on the traditional classic. I love the flavors of the homemade guacamole paired with the egg yolks it really makes this dish so different and fun!

The avocado and tomatoes paired with bright citrus and cilantro really adds a freshness to the dish; plus the kick from the jalapeno and chili powder amplify the flavor all the more. If you want to really make an impressively different and delicious appy, this is the one.

  • Salt and Pepper – To taste.

How To Make Guacamole Deviled Eggs

  1. Cook and Peel the eggs – Cook the eggs, and cool. Once the hard boiled eggs have cooled, peel.
  2. Cut and Remove Yolks – Cut the eggs in half horizontally, and spoon out the egg yolks to a bowl.
  3. Making Filling – In a bowl, mash the avocado with a fork. Add the egg yolks, lime juice, red onion, jalapeno, cilantro, tomatoes, salt, pepper, and mix well. Taste for seasoning and adjust to taste.
  4. Assemble and Serve – Scoop heaping spoonfuls of the guacamole into the 12 halved egg whites. Sprinkle with a little chili powder and arrange on a platter. Serve.

Ways To Make Hard Boiled Eggs

  • Traditional Hard Boiled Eggs
  • Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs
  • Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs

Tips

Cook the eggs in your instant pot for fast and easy hard boiled eggs!

Peeling Tips

  • Completely Cool The Eggs! – This will allow the egg to detach itself from the shell easily – you can even pop them in the fridge to aid in the peeling process.
  • The Spin and Tap Method – Gently tap the egg while simultaneously spinning it in a complete 360° circle – making sure all sides are cracked.
  • Be Gentle! – Gently take the shell off by using the side of your fingers and peeling slowly. Take your time and lift the shell ever so slightly, it should peel off with ease!

How to serve

These guacamole deviled eggs are the perfect appetizer to serve at parties, get togethers, BBQs, even as a snack or grab and go breakfast/lunch! The chili powder adds such a nice flavor kick to the creamy guacamole and makes these eggs such a fan favourite.

Make them ahead of time

The beautiful thing about deviled eggs is that you can make them ahead of time! Typically, you can make deviled eggs up to 2 days in advance. But since we are using avocado I would say it’s best to either make these fresh or the night before.

The trick is to keep the whites and the guacamole, egg yolk filling separate. Cover the egg white halves with plastic wrap and keep the filling sealed in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag with all the air squeezed out. When you are ready to serve, just fill your eggs and voila!

Leftovers

Store leftovers covered in plastic wrap or in an airtight container in the fridge. Leftover guacamole deviled eggs should be eaten within 3-4 days, but because of the avocado, the filling will turn a bit brown.

I use my instant pot to hard boil eggs (so easy!) First tried recipe as written and was good, but seemed to be missing something. Next try, I used Tbsp of red onion and added tsp of minced garlic. Perfection!

Hi William, I guess that wasn’t clear enough, fixed the recipe card. You add the egg yolks to the avocado and the rest of the ingredients and mix them all together.

I want to make the guacamole deviled eggs at least a day ahead…do I need to worry about them getting brown or does the lime juice take care of that Issue? Thanks so much.

The lime juice will help a bit, unfortunately the avocado will still oxidize and the color of the guacamole won’t be as bright as the day they were made.

What. I’m the first? Sounds lovely. I can eat eggs and avocado daily.
Jo my sweet. Have you recently mentioned a recipe with treacle or delicious golden syrup in? If you did and me not having those do have silan. Evrn if it wasn’t you would silan fit the bill as a replacement for said yummies?
And what are you all doing on new year’s day?
