Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons pickle relish
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dijon mustard
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • paprika

Instructions

  1. Hard boil the eggs using one of three methods: stovetop, Instant Pot, or oven.
  2. For stovetop, cover eggs with water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, add baking soda, cover, and remove from heat for 12 minutes, then cool in an ice water bath.
  3. For Instant Pot, place eggs on a wire rack, add 1 cup of water, and cook on high pressure for 5 minutes, followed by a 5-minute natural release, then cool in ice water.
  4. For oven, preheat to 325°F, place eggs in muffin tins, and bake for 30 minutes, then cool in ice water.
  5. Peel and slice the eggs in half lengthwise, removing yolks into a bowl.
  6. Mix yolks with mayonnaise, pickle relish, and mustard until smooth, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture, using a spoon or piping bag, and garnish with paprika before serving.

Notes

These deviled eggs can be stored in the fridge for 2-3 days.
For a twist, substitute mayonnaise with half Greek yogurt for a lighter version.
Garnish can include chives or additional spices for extra flavor.
