Whether planning a picnic, hosting a potluck, having friends over for game day, or laying out a Thanksgiving spread, deviled eggs always make an amazing appetizer. Creamy, rich, with a subtle hint of tanginess, deviled eggs are a popular staple for any get-together.

This simple recipe couldn't be easier to make. All you need are eggs, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and some mayo – all ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen. Deviled eggs are super easy to customize as well – use your favorite toppings to take them to the next level!

Your Essential Tips for Making the Best Deviled Eggs

No apple cider vinegar? Try white wine vinegar or Champagne vinegar instead.

For the best flavor, use full-fat mayo. Low-fat mayo can also be used as a substitute.

If you want to make healthier deviled eggs, use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.

Jazz up your deviled eggs by topping them with chopped parsley or chives, crumbled bacon or pancetta, a splash of pickle juice, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, truffle salt, or a dash of hot sauce.

Keep deviled eggs in the fridge until it's time to serve them.
