Breakfast Deviled Eggs are a staple for Easter every year, or for any brunch or special occasion. This super simple bacon deviled eggs recipe is one of my favorite appetizers. You can make these easy breakfast deviled eggs and serve on a breakfast snack board, if you choose.

Breakfast Deviled Eggs

Serve for potlucks, picnics, parties, holidays–you name it! Set a platter of these bites out and watch them quickly disappear.

Deviled Eggs are often requested, because not only are they a great, tasty bite, they are delicious leftover (if there are any). Today we’re adding a breakfast twist, rather than the traditional recipe. We added cream cheese, with a crunchy bacon, with “everything bagel seasoning.”

how to make Breakfast Deviled Eggs

How do you make breakfast deviled eggs?

Hard-boil the eggs by your preferred method. (The most basic is to cover with cold water, bring to a boil, then remove from the heat and let stand for 8 to 10 minutes.) Drain and cool the eggs in an ice bath. Peel the eggs.

If you want soft-boiled eggs, follow this “Soft Boiled Eggs” recipe.

  1. Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and use a small spoon to pop out the yolks and place in a bowl.
  2. Add the softened cream cheese to the yolks. Beat on low speed and then on high speed, until fluffy and whipped. Add in the salt and pepper, or season to taste.
  3. Add in the half of the bacon and the green onions. Gently mix together with a spoon or spatula.
  4. Scoop the filling into each egg white half, mounding on top. Optional to pipe into the eggs.
  5. Sprinkle the tops of the filled eggs lightly with the everything bagel seasoning.
  6. Garnish eggs with remaining bacon and green onions.
  7. Serve within two hours.

Tips and substitutions:

  • Bacon Jalapeno Deviled Eggs – Add bacon and jalapenos to the yolk mixture and pipe into eggs. Or, you can also use sliced jalapenos for garnish on top.
  • Prosciutto Deviled Eggs – Add 2 tablespoons finely shredded cheddar cheese to the yolk mixture, and top with prochuitto.
  • Lime Guacamole Deviled Eggs – Make our Lime Guacamole recipe, with a drizzle of sriracha to the filling mixture, or on top.
  • Make sure you reserve some bacon to crumble into small pieces as a garnish for the deviled eggs.
  • Soft-boiled eggs: Use this recipe for the perfect soft boiled eggs, if you prefer soft over hard-cooked.
  • We do recommend using organic eggs or eggs from free-range chickens.
  • The everything bagel seasoning is completely essential to these deviled eggs. We buy it at Trader Joe’s but it’s also available on Amazon or make it yourself.
  • Use a piping  bag: Deviled eggs look pretty when you pipe the filling. It’s also quick and easy. You can also fill a Ziploc or plastic bag, and cut the tip/corner off.
  • You don’t have to use an egg plate, if you’re making a “breakfast board” you can set the eggs directly on the board.

How to store

You can store deviled eggs with bacon in the fridge up to 2 days, but they are best eaten the same day.

Save time and boil the eggs ahead of time, but don’t fill the eggs until 2 hours before serving.

How to serve

Serve on an egg plate. Some egg plates have room for other foods in the center, so you can add mini quiches, crudites, cheese, or other breakfast foods.

What goes well with deviled eggs for breakfast? The best dishes to serve with deviled eggs are Baked Berry French Toast, Farmer’s Casserole, Honey Pepper Bacon, and Cinnamon Roll Pecan Cake.

You can also serve these eggs on a Easter Charcuterie Board or Deviled Egg Croissant Charcuterie Board.
