Equipment

  • 1 Small bowl
  • 1 Fork
  • 1 Serving Plate
  • 1 Piping Bag or Zip-top Bag optional

Ingredients
  

  • 6 large eggs hard-boiled and peeled
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt plus more to taste
  • 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons everything bagel seasoning plus more for topping
  • 1 teaspoon chives finely chopped, optional

Instructions
 

  • Slice each peeled hard-boiled egg in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a small bowl, then arrange the egg whites on a serving plate.
  • Mash the yolks with a fork until they are crumbly. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and everything bagel seasoning. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  • Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites. If you want a neater look, use a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off.
  • Sprinkle a little more everything bagel seasoning over the tops. Finish with chopped chives if you like a fresh, colorful touch.
  • Refrigerate the eggs for at least 15 minutes before serving so the filling can set up slightly and the flavors can mingle.

Notes

If you want a lighter filling, swap part of the mayonnaise for plain Greek yogurt. For extra tang, add a little more lemon juice or mustard. If you do not have chives, finely sliced green onion works well too.
Use eggs that are fully cooled before peeling, since they are usually easier to handle and keep their shape better. If you want the filling extra smooth, press the yolks through a fine mesh sieve before mixing.
Taste the filling before piping it into the whites, then adjust the salt, lemon juice, or mustard as needed. Everything bagel seasoning can be salty, so start with less and add more after mixing.
Try adding a pinch of smoked paprika for a deeper savory note. You can also stir in finely chopped dill for a fresh herbal flavor.
For a little heat, mix in a small amount of hot sauce or cayenne. If you love a richer filling, add a spoonful of softened cream cheese for a thicker texture.
These eggs are lovely alongside fresh fruit, sliced cucumbers, and a simple green salad for brunch. They also pair well with smoked salmon, toasted bagels, or a tray of roasted vegetables.
For easy entertaining, serve them with other small bites like hummus, olives, crackers, and cheese. A sparkling drink or fresh citrus spritzer rounds out the spread nicely.
Store deviled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. For the best texture, keep them chilled until just before serving.
These eggs are meant to be served cold, so reheating is not needed. If you are making them ahead, you can prepare the filling and egg whites separately, then assemble them shortly before guests arrive.
There is something about a platter of deviled eggs that always brings people in close. They are familiar, comforting, and just a little bit special, which is exactly why they work so well for gatherings.
Yes, you can make them a few hours in advance. For the freshest look, store the filling and egg whites separately, then fill and garnish before serving.
Mash the yolks very well before adding the other ingredients. For an even silkier texture, whisk the filling or push the yolks through a sieve first.
Start with a small amount in the filling, then add more only after tasting. You can also balance the saltiness with a little extra mayonnaise or lemon juice.
Yes, a zip-top bag with one corner cut off works well. You can also simply spoon the filling into the egg whites for a more rustic presentation.
Everything Bagel Deviled Eggs are a simple way to make a classic appetizer feel fresh and fun. With creamy filling, a savory topping, and easy prep, they are the kind of recipe you will want to keep on repeat for brunch and beyond.
