Pumpkin Patch Deviled Eggs

A fun and festive twist on classic deviled eggs, perfect for autumn gatherings and Halloween parties.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika, plus more for dusting
  • A tiny dash of orange food coloring (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan. Cover with cold water and bring to a boil.
  2. Once boiling, remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes.
  3. While the eggs sit, prepare an ice bath in a bowl.
  4. After 10 minutes, transfer the hot eggs to the ice bath and let them cool for 5 minutes.
  5. Tap the eggs on a hard surface, roll them gently, and peel under cool running water.
  6. Slice each egg in half and scoop out the yolks into a bowl.
  7. Mix the yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, salt, pepper, and paprika (add orange food coloring here if using).
  8. Pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites.
  9. Use a knife or toothpick to create indentations that resemble pumpkin ridges.
  10. Insert chive pieces for the stems of the pumpkins and dust with paprika.
  11. Chill the eggs before serving.

Notes

Best served cold; garnish with extra paprika or chive pieces for visual appeal.
