Servings: 12 eggs
Calories: 92kcal
Ingredients
- 6-8 hard boiled eggs
- 1 large avocado
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1/2 of a lime
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- paprika topping
Instructions
- Start by boiling your eggs. Place them in a pot of water, bring to a boil, then simmer for 12 minutes. For perfectly hard-boiled eggs that are easy to peel, consider using a pressure cooker. Once done, cool the eggs in an ice bath before peeling them.
- Cut each egg in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks. Place the yolks in a food processor.
- Add the avocado, sour cream, lime juice, salt, and pepper to the food processor. Process for about 20 seconds, then scrape down the sides of the bowl. Process for another 20 seconds or until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Transfer the avocado mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large tip, or simply use a spoon to fill each egg white half with the mixture. If you’re using a piping bag, it helps to pipe the filling into the egg whites for a neat and decorative look, especially if serving at a party. I used a Wilton 2D in an 18" pastry bag.
- For an extra burst of flavor, sprinkle the tops of the filled eggs with paprika or smoked paprika. Add a touch of spicy cayenne if you like some heat. Finish with crispy bacon pieces for added texture, or crumble blue cheese, feta cheese, or goat cheese on top for a rich, savory touch.
Notes
- You may have left over filling with this one. The left overs would be really good spread on a meat sandwich.
- To prevent the avocado filling from browning, consider adding a light sprinkle of Fruit Fresh during the processing.
