No reviews

These deviled eggs are straight out of the inferno! Hot sauce and other spices give these eggs a powerful flavor punch, while swapping the traditional mayonnaise for Greek yogurt gives them a healthy, probiotic twist.

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 6 hard boiled eggs, cooled and peeled
  • 1/4 cup whole milk Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 black pepper
  • Pickled hot peppers, chives, more hot sauce, or more chili powder to garnish, optional

Instructions

  1. Combine the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, hot sauce, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne powder, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
  2. Cut hard boiled eggs in half and add the yolks to the bowl.
  3. Whisk vigorously to combine. An electric whisk or stand mixer will make it easier to get it smooth, but it can also be done by hand.
  4. Transfer the spiced egg yolk into a piping bag with tip and pipe it into the egg whites. Alternatively, just spoon it in!
  5. Garnish with whatever toppings you desire – pickled hot peppers, chives, hot sauce, and chili powder are all great options. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

  • The heat of the hot sauce is the main determinant of the spice level of the eggs, though the fat in the egg yolk and yogurt bring it down a bit. Use a very spicy hot sauce for spicy eggs or a mild hot sauce for just a hint of heat.
