Print Recipe

Festive and flavorful deviled eggs shaped like Christmas trees, perfect for holiday gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 7 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cloves garlic (sliced thin)
  • 5 oz baby spinach
  • 1/3 cup mayo
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • 1/2 lemon (juice)
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 2 tablespoons dehydrated potato flakes
  • 1 red fresno chili pepper (minced)
  • 1 yellow bell pepper (cut into small stars)
  • Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil, then cover the pot and remove it from heat. Let the eggs sit for about 12 minutes. Afterward, cool them in ice water.
  2. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic and cook until fragrant. Add the baby spinach and sauté until wilted. Remove from heat and let it cool.
  3. Once the eggs are cool, peel them and cut them in half. Remove the yolks and place them in a bowl. Add the spinach mixture, mayo, mustard, lemon juice, smoked paprika, hot sauce, and potato flakes. Mash together until smooth.
  4. Spoon or pipe the filling back into the egg whites. Use the minced red fresno chili pepper to create a festive tree trunk look. Decorate the top of the eggs with the yellow bell pepper stars and sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.

Notes

You can make the filling a day in advance and assemble the trees just before serving. For added flavor, consider using different types of cheese or spices in the filling.
