How To Make Dill Pickle Deviled Eggs

The Ingredients

  • Eggs (6 large): The base of any deviled egg recipe. They provide protein and a creamy texture once mixed. I used Vital Farm eggs in this recipe for their bright yolks.
    Substitute: None, but you can use pasture-raised eggs for richer flavor and color.
  • Mayonnaise (1 tbsp): Adds richness and that classic deviled egg creaminess.
    Substitute: Use all Greek yogurt for a lighter version, or mashed avocado for a different twist.
  • Greek Yogurt (1 tbsp): Lightens up the filling while adding a slight tang and extra protein.
    Substitute: Sour cream works well, or just use more mayo if you prefer a traditional flavor.
  • Dijon Mustard (2 tsp): Brings sharpness and depth to balance the creamy ingredients.
    Substitute: Yellow mustard for a milder taste, or spicy brown mustard for more kick.
  • Pickle Juice (2 tbsp): The secret ingredient! It adds that signature dill pickle tang throughout the filling.
    Substitute: Apple cider vinegar or white vinegar (start with less and adjust to taste).
  • Finely Diced Pickles (¼ heaping cup): Adds crunch, texture, and bold pickle flavor in every bite.
    Substitute: Relish works in a pinch, but finely diced whole pickles give the best texture.
  • Chili Flakes & Paprika (for garnish): Adds a pop of color and a subtle hint of spice.
    Substitute: Smoked paprika, fresh dill, or cracked black pepper.

What You Need

The Steps

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  • While you're waiting for it to boil, remove eggs from the fridge and let them come to room temperature (this prevents them from cracking).
  • Gently add eggs to the boiling water and set the timer for 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the eggs immediately to an ice bath and let them sit for at least 5 minutes (longer is even better). This makes peeling much easier.
  • Peel the eggs, slice them in half lengthwise, and gently scoop the yolks into a small bowl.
  • Add mayo, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, pickle juice, and finely diced pickles to the yolks. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  • Spoon the mixture into a ziplock bag (snip the corner) or use a piping bag for a cleaner look. Fill each egg white half evenly.
  • Sprinkle with chili flakes and paprika.
  • Serve immediately or chill until ready to enjoy.

Recipe Tips

  • To make this recipe faster, boil the eggs ahead of time.
  • You can garnish with chili flakes and paprika OR even fresh dill. Another delicious idea would be to crumble dill pickle chips on top!
