Everything Bagel Deviled Eggs (Printable)

Cream cheese yolk filling, everything bagel seasoning, and chives atop tender egg whites - a zesty brunch or appetizer.

# Required Ingredients:

→ Eggs

01 - 6 large eggs

→ Filling

02 - 3 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
03 - 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
04 - 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
05 - 1 teaspoon lemon juice
06 - 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives
07 - Salt and black pepper, to taste

→ Topping

08 - 1 ½ tablespoons everything bagel seasoning

# Directions:

01 - Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, turn off the heat, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes.
02 - Drain the eggs and transfer them to a bowl of ice water to cool completely, about 5 minutes. Peel the eggs carefully.
03 - Slice the eggs in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks and place them in a medium bowl. Arrange the egg whites on a serving platter.
04 - Mash the yolks with a fork. Add the cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and chopped chives. Mix until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
05 - Transfer the filling to a piping bag or use a spoon to fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture.
06 - Sprinkle each deviled egg generously with everything bagel seasoning. Garnish with extra chives if desired.
07 - Serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It secretly delivers the joy of a bagel brunch without any gluten in sight.
  • The tangy cream cheese makes the filling extra creamy and unforgettable.
02 -
  • If you rush the egg-cooling step, you'll end up massacring the whites trying to peel them.
  • Mixing the filling while the yolks are still warm makes for the fluffiest texture—learned after a few dense batches.
03 -
  • Older eggs (a week or two) are so much easier to peel and make for tidier halves.
  • Warming the cream cheese slightly truly helps it become smooth and blend in—no specks or lumps.
