| Total: | 45 min |
| Active: | 30 min |
| Yield: | 24 deviled eggs |
Ingredients
- 12 large eggs
- 1/2 ripe avocado, pitted, peeled and mashed (about 1/2 cup)
- Juice of 1 lime (about 5 teaspoons)
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro, plus 24 small leaves, for serving
- Kosher salt
- Cayenne pepper, for serving
- Flaky sea salt, for serving
Instructions
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil over high heat and prepare a large bowl of ice water. Gently lower the eggs into the boiling water with a slotted spoon and cook for 10 minutes. Drain the eggs with the slotted spoon and transfer to the ice water to cool completely, about 5 minutes.
- Peel the eggs, halve each lengthwise and remove the yolks from the whites. Place the yolks in a food processor and set the whites aside on a plate. Add the avocado, lime juice, sour cream, chopped cilantro and 1 teaspoon kosher salt to the yolks and process until the mixture is smooth and light.
- Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture into the cavities of the whites then sprinkle each egg lightly with cayenne and some flaky sea salt. Top with a cilantro leaf and serve the eggs immediately or cover and refrigerate up to 6 hours.

Reviews
Huge hit! I substituted paprika instead of the cayenne, and I left out the flake salt b/c the filling was plenty salty. Highly recommend using a piping bag; what an easy way to fill!
I made these for a family gathering and they were a big hit! People asked for the recipe. They have a fresh, big flavor. I’ll be making these again.
These are delicious. Next time I will add a pickled jalapeño as I prefer my deviled eggs to have a crunch.
Making for a party this weekend for the second time. These are so tasty!
Yummy!!
