Avocado deviled eggs are keto, paleo, and so delicious! Plus, they are very easy to make if you use store-bought guacamole.
Avocado deviled eggs are the perfect snack or appetizer for health-conscious individuals who prefer to avoid junky processed snacks. And the best part? You make this super easy recipe with just two ingredients! How easy is that!
EASY 2-ingredient recipe
These yummy eggs make a fun, delicious twist on the classic appetizer. Can you believe that this delicious recipe has only two ingredients? The reason: I don’t mind using prepared guacamole in this recipe – it saves time and makes my life easier.
Guacamole is actually one of the few packaged items that tend to have a clean ingredients list. And store-bought guacamole can be very tasty, depending on the brand.
The ingredients you’ll need
You’ll only need TWO simple ingredients to make this tasty appetizer. The exact measurements are included in the recipe card below. Here’s an overview of what you’ll need:
- Hard-boiled eggs
- Prepared guacamole
- You can dust them with some paprika, but that’s purely optional.
How to make avocado deviled eggs
It’s so easy! Scroll down to the recipe card for the detailed instructions. Here are the basic steps:
- You start by slicing each egg in half lengthwise.
- Then you gently remove the yolks and place them in a medium bowl. Arrange the egg white halves on a serving plate.
- Mash the egg yolks well with a fork. Add the guacamole and keep mashing and mixing until smooth.
- Spoon the mixture back into the empty egg white halves.
- Sprinkle the eggs with paprika and serve. See? Easy!
Should I add mayonnaise?
Avocados are so wonderfully creamy and delicious, so there’s no need for mayonnaise or sour cream in this recipe. And since prepared guacamole is so well seasoned, you also don’t need to add any seasonings.
Which means this recipe is super easy – easier than other deviled eggs recipes (such as these tasty spicy deviled eggs).
Are they healthy?
I believe they are. Eggs are nutritious, which means deviled eggs are healthy too, especially if you use avocado oil mayo, or – in the case of this recipe – avocado.
I generally don’t mind using avocado oil mayonnaise, but some people really prefer to avoid mayonnaise. For them, this recipe is the perfect answer. (Another great option is this recipe for Greek yogurt deviled eggs.)
How to serve avocado deviled eggs
They are obviously perfect as an appetizer or a snack. But I actually love having them for lunch. I make myself a lunch of three of them (six halves), with a side of fresh-cut veggies, and I’m a happy camper!
Is this a make-ahead recipe?
Yes and no. You can make these eggs in advance, and keep them in the fridge for a few hours. But not for longer than that, unfortunately, or the guacamole will turn brown.
