Everything Bagel Deviled Eggs (Printable)

Creamy yolk filling with cream cheese and chives, finished with everything bagel seasoning for a savory brunch bite.

# What You Need:

→ Eggs

01 - 6 large eggs

→ Filling

02 - 3 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
03 - 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
04 - 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
05 - 1 teaspoon lemon juice
06 - 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives
07 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

→ Topping

08 - 1 1/2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning
09 - Extra chopped chives, for garnish (optional)

# Directions:

01 - Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
02 - Once boiling, remove the pan from heat, cover, and let the eggs sit undisturbed for 10 minutes to finish cooking.
03 - Drain the hot water and transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water. Cool for about 5 minutes, then carefully peel the shells.
04 - Slice eggs lengthwise and gently remove yolks to a medium bowl. Arrange the whites on a serving platter.
05 - Mash the yolks with a fork until crumbly. Add cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice and chopped chives; mix until smooth and season with salt and pepper.
06 - Transfer the yolk mixture to a piping bag or use a spoon to portion it into each egg white half, creating a neat mound.
07 - Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning over each half and garnish with additional chives if desired.
08 - Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. For best texture, chill no longer than a few hours before serving.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • No one expects deviled eggs to taste like your favorite neighborhood bagel—so these disappear fast at parties.
  • It’s the ultimate low-fuss, high-flavor dish: creamy, tangy, salty, and just a pinch different from what everyone else brings.
02 -
  • Peeled eggs can stubbornly stick if you skip the ice water bath—learned that messy lesson once, never again.
  • Room temperature cream cheese combines so much easier than cold: a minute of patience saves an arm workout.
03 -
  • If you get small chips in the egg white, fill over them—no one notices once the seasoning goes on.
  • A little extra lemon juice wakes up the flavors if you make these in advance.
