These bacon deviled eggs are so tasty and simple to make! Paleo friendly mayo, dijon mustard, crispy savory bacon and chives. Perfect for gatherings or anytime! Dairy free and Whole30.
Deviled eggs were the first recipe I ever made as a child when I was about 10 years old.
I remember having them at a barbeque and knew I needed to recreate them!
My mom filled me in on the basic ingredients and I gave it a whirl on my own. Sadly, without the bacon!
I loved them so much that I started attempting to recreate other random foods I liked to make the “best” version. Funny how that hobby turned out!
Luckily now, I get to recreate lots of my favorite foods with good-for-you ingredients to share! These deviled eggs are an older recipe – on of the first ever on this blog, that deserves a little love this Spring.
They’re simple to make and so delicious!
What You Need to Make Bacon Deviled Eggs
A few simple ingredients are all you need. You can make my homemade paleo mayo (best flavor!) or use a store bought avocado oil mayo like this one.
Here’s everything you’ll need to prepare the deviled eggs:
- eggs
- nitrate free bacon
- dijon mustard
- paleo mayo (homemade or store bought)
- hot sauce, optional
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
- fresh chives
- paprika or smoked paprika
How to Make Bacon Deviled Eggs
To hard boil the eggs, place them in a large saucepan and cover with cold water about an inch above the eggs. Bring to a rolling boil, then turn off the heat and cover the saucepan.
Let the eggs steam this way for 12-14 minutes, then run under cold water. Allow the eggs to cool for at least 15 minutes, then peel.
Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a skillet until crispy, then drain and crumble.
Once the eggs have cooled, slice each one in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and put them in a medium bowl. Set the egg white halves aside for the meantime.
Mash the hard boiled egg yolks with a fork, then add the mustard, mayo, salt, pepper, hot sauce and 1 tablespoon of chives and mix very well, until you have a thick, creamy filling for the whites.
Spoon the yolk mixture into the egg white halves, overfilled a little.
Sprinkle the smoked paprika over all the eggs, then top with the crumbled bacon and more chopped chives.
Serve right away, or cover tightly with plastic wrap and store in the fridge until serving.
I hope you’re ready for one of my favorite savory treats!

I hope you have the best trip! I think the break will be awesome for you and can’t wait to hear about it when you get back. And then we need to make our barre/spin plans for July!
Yes! Haven’t forgotten, that will be fun! And thanks, we’re pretty much all packed and ready 🙂
These look fab! We don’t have deviled eggs over here in the UK, who knows why, they are the perfect party snack!
Hope you have a fun trip away and remember to relax! 😉
Perfect for parties, and snacks as I’ve found the past couple of days! And thank you, I do really want to relax and enjoy 🙂
Haha I do that too. Underestimate my recipe time. Have fun in Seattle and hope you get a much needed break!
I either under or overestimate. This week was lots of underestimating with everything! Finally ready to get away though 🙂
Have an amazing time in Seattle! Thank you again for letting me guest for you 😀 I’m (obviously) not paleo, but I think we shall suffice. I am from GA, and I don’t think I’ve ever made deviled eggs. But I will tell you–there is rarely a potluck that doesn’t include them!
Thank you, and of course! Love deviled eggs, I don’t make them enough 🙂
Have so much fun in Seattle! You deserve a week of rest : ) I’m a big fan of avocado deviled eggs! Add crushed red pepper to the top = perfection! My weekend plans contain relaxing and hopefully the beach if the weather is nice!
I’ve actually never made those, but yum I bet they’re great! Have a great weekend 🙂
anything with bacon is 1000x better! These look so good 🙂
Thanks, and totally agree!
Pancakes! I had a Super Hero themed cookbook and that was one of my first that I remember. I had a slight obsession with Wonder Woman. 🙂 Safe travels!
Pancakes are a good one for kids! I probably should have practiced then because I’m not great with them now 🙂 Thank you!
yay i absolutely LOVE deviled eggs!!! my first recipe that was not chinese and that i cooked by myself was american style pancakes from my special kid’s cookbook. i’ll never forget the smells and the joy i had 🙂
my hubby is coming home tonight, he’s been gone all week. we have plans all weekend little does he know, LOL. happy friday friend!
Pancakes seem like a popular first attempt at cooking, maybe my kids can teach me how to properly flip them one day, not my best skill 🙂 Have a great weekend sounds like fun!!
That’s pretty badass that this was the first thing you made!
Obviously….this is not for me, hahaha, but my dad LOVES deviled eggs so perfect timing with Father’s Day! 😉
Lol I guess I was always a go big or go home type 😉 I also just really loved deviled eggs and they seemed simple enough! Hope you have a great weekend and Dad’s day!!
I love deviled eggs SO much, but never thought to add bacon. Duh..bacon makes everything better! Trying this soon! Have fun in Seattle 🙂
Bacon really just adds good flavor to almost anything 🙂 Thank you!
I think eggs were some of the first things I cooked myself as well, only mine were the scrambled kind. Either that or KD… buuuut I’m not sure if that technically counts as cooking 😆 Hope you have the bet time in Seattle! Try not to stress too much <3
I remember my second project was the “perfect” tuna salad and then the “perfect” scrambled eggs. I used to hate when the eggs were rough on the outside 🙂 And thanks, I’m mentally preparing myself to not stress right now, lol 🙂
I have to make these for Vegas. Deviled eggs are among her favorite foods… I think second only to fried chicken.
Have fun in Seattle! So much good food there…
Yum to fried chicken, she definitely has good taste! And thank you! Have a great weekend 🙂
YUM! I love deviled eggs. The first food I remember making was helping my mom with dinner— I was in charge of sauteeing veggies, mostly mushrooms and spinach! Yea, I was a weird kid 😛
That’s funny! What a helpful kid you were 🙂 Have a great weekend!
I looooove deviled eggs, but for some reason I have never attempted to make them. I guess I just wait until there is a special occasion and my mom or one of my aunts makes them for me. I might just have to try this one! I’m sure mine won’t be half as pretty as yours, but I’ll try! Have a great trip!!
I always used to eat them at my aunts house and totally fell in love with them! Turns out they’re great for a snack anytime and not hard to make 🙂
Hey girl, enjoy Seattle!! I don’t know if you are there on business or vaca, but I used to live there are there are some amazing restaurants that should be super accommodating to dietary needs! Circa, and The Matador in West Seattle have great ambiance, and do well with kiddos too!
Have fun!
We are visiting family outside of the city, I’ve spent time in the city though on other trips and really love it! Thanks 🙂
haha yes, the paleo Gods were on your side at a young age, and I”m glad they did! Because I need help with bacon. This recipe i can do! YAY!
For some reason it was necessary for me to learn to make bacon! I guess I see where Diana gets it from now 🙂
Very good deviled eggs. How many carbs per half???
Have you ever used a chipotle mayo with these eggs?
I love deviled eggs SO much, but never thought to add bacon. Duh..bacon makes everything better! Trying this soon! Have fun in Seattle . thanks for sharing this article.
