Sweet and Savory Peanut Butter Deviled Eggs Recipe

  • 6 eggs
  • 3 slices bacon, finely chopped
  • 3 tablespoons crunchy peanut butter
  • 8 pickle slices, diced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons hot sauce (such as Louisiana®)
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 pinch ground paprika, or to taste
  1. Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil; remove from heat and let stand, about 15 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water and cool under cold running water. Peel and cut in half.
  2. Place bacon pieces in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels, reserving 1 tablespoon grease.
  3. Scoop egg yolks into a bowl. Add reserved bacon grease and peanut butter; mash well. Mix in pickles, mayonnaise, and hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Spoon yolk mixture into empty egg whites. Garnish with bacon pieces and paprika.
