Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Air Fryer (optional)
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Piping Bag
  • Piping Tips

Ingredients
  

  • 12 large eggs
  • ¼ cup light mayo
  • 1.5 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon whole grain mustard
  • 3 teaspoons sweet pickle juice
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce optional
  • 1 Pickle sliced into chips/tiny pieces for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Prepare hard boiled eggs using either boiling or air frying method.
    Method 1: Boil
    Add your eggs to the bottom of a large sauce pan in one layer. Cover with 1-2 inches of cold water and a bit of salt and set over medium high heat. Once the water comes to a rolling boil, turn off the heat, but leave the pan on the hot burner. Cover and let sit for 10-12 minutes. Then, immediately drain out the hot water, fill with cold water (and ice), and cool the eggs down. Then just peel as you would normally.
    Method 2: Air fry
    Place your eggs in your air fryer (mine is oven style so I put them on a tray), set to 275 F for 15 minutes for perfectly hard boiled eggs. If the eggs are really huge, 16 minutes, if they're smaller, 13-14, etc. Then, just throw them in an ice bath, cool them down, and peel.
  • Cut eggs lengthwise and remove yolks, putting all of the yolks in a small mixing bowl. Using a fork or hand mixer, break up the yolks as much as possible. Add mayo, mustard (yellow and whole grain), pickle juice, hot sauce, salt, and pepper and mix well until smooth and creamy.
  • Using a piping bag fitted with a star tip, pipe filling into each egg. Garnish with slice of pickle and some chives or paprika to finish them off. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
