A quick and easy low-carb snack featuring hard-boiled eggs filled with a creamy, smoky bacon yolk mixture and coated with almond flour for a crispy finish. Perfect for keto diets and crowd-pleasing appetizers.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs (hard-boiled and peeled)
  • 4 thick-cut bacon strips (cooked until crispy and finely chopped)
  • 3 tablespoons full-fat mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives (finely chopped)
  • 1/2 cup almond flour (for coating)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Place 6 large eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by about an inch. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, then turn off the heat, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes.
  2. Drain and place eggs in an ice bath for 5 minutes to stop cooking.
  3. While eggs are cooling, cook 4 thick-cut bacon strips in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Drain on paper towels, then finely chop once cool. Set aside about 2 tablespoons for topping and mix the rest into the filling.
  4. Gently peel the eggs and slice each in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the yolks into a mixing bowl, placing the whites on a parchment-lined baking sheet or air fryer basket.
  5. Mash the yolks with a fork until crumbly. Add 3 tablespoons mayo, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/8 teaspoon onion powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
  6. Fold in the chopped bacon and 1 tablespoon fresh chives.
  7. Using a spoon or piping bag, fill each egg white half generously with the yolk mixture. Shape the filling neatly to avoid spillage during coating.
  8. Spread 1/2 cup almond flour in a shallow dish. Lightly press each filled egg into the almond flour, coating all exposed surfaces.
  9. For air fryer: Preheat to 375°F (190°C). Place eggs in a single layer, cook for 6-8 minutes until golden and crispy.
  10. For oven: Preheat to 400°F (200°C), bake on a lined sheet for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway for even crispness.
  11. Remove crispy eggs carefully and garnish with reserved bacon bits and extra chives. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Ensure eggs are completely dry before coating to achieve a crispy crust. Adjust cook times slightly depending on your air fryer or oven. Bacon can be substituted with pancetta or smoked turkey bacon. For dairy-free, use coconut mayo and crushed pork rinds instead of almond flour. Reheat leftovers in air fryer to restore crispiness; avoid microwaving.
