Best Deviled Eggs With Ancho Chili Candied Bacon Recipes

DEVILED EGGS WITH CANDIED BACON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, a pinch of cayenne and the cinnamon. Place the bacon on a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle each slice of bacon with some of the spiced sugar and bake, about 10 minutes. Flip the bacon, sprinkle with the remaining spiced sugar and continue to cook until crispy, about 10 more minutes. Remove the bacon from the oven and allow to cool. When the bacon is cool, mince it and set aside, reserving a quarter of it for garnishing the eggs.
• Put the cold eggs in the bottom of a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and remove the pan from the heat. Cover the pan with a lid and let stand for 12 minutes. Drain the eggs and rinse with cold water. Let the eggs cool a bit and then peel when they are still warm (eggs are much easier to peel when they are warm). After they are peeled, you can then store them, covered, in the fridge.
• Mix together the mayonnaise, mustard, dill, cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, the scallions and the minced bacon in a medium mixing bowl. Season with the salt.
• Slice the eggs in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks by pressing your thumb against the back of the yolk to pop it out of the white. Add the yolks to the bowl with the mayonnaise mixture. Mash together, using a fork, until smooth.
• Put the filling in a re-sealable bag. Cut one end off and pipe the filling into the egg whites. Sprinkle with the paprika, extra bacon bits and dill before serving.
• Cook's Notes: A wire rack is a great way to cook bacon because the air can circulate around the bacon making it crispy and delicious.
• Plastic bags are a great tool to use in place of a piping bag, easy and disposable.

• Place the eggs into a saucepan in a single layer and fill with water to cover the eggs by 1 inch. Cover the saucepan and bring the water to a boil over high heat. Remove from the heat and let the eggs stand in the hot water for 15 minutes. Drain. Cool the eggs under cold running water. Peel once cold. Halve the eggs lengthwise and scoop the yolks into a bowl. Mash the yolks with a fork.
• Cook the bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate; chop once cool. Add to the egg yolks with the ranch dressing. Spoon the mixture into the egg white halves. Arrange on a tray and refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving.

MAPLE BACON DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• For the bacon: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and fit with a cooling rack. Spray the cooling rack with nonstick spray. Lay the bacon out on the rack in an even layer. Mix the syrup, sugar, paprika and cayenne, if using, in a small bowl. Brush on both sides of the bacon. Bake until golden but still pliable, about 15 minutes, then flip and bake until darker and crisp, another 15 minutes. (The bacon will continue to crisp as it rests.) Remove to a plate and allow to cool completely in a single layer. Chop and set aside.
• For the eggs: Fill a large saucepan with water and bring to a boil. With a ladle, slowly lower the eggs into the water, one by one. Reduce the heat to a low boil and cook for 10 minutes. Drain. When the eggs are cool enough to handle, remove the shells.
• Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a food processor. Arrange the whites cut-side up on a serving platter. Process the yolks until it looks sandy. Add the mayo, Dijon, maple syrup, salt and pepper. Process until well blended and very smooth, about 1 minute, then transfer to a resealable plastic bag or piping bag. If using a resealable bag, use scissors to snip off a bottom corner from the bag. Using the bag like a pastry bag, pipe the yolk mixture into the egg whites. Sprinkle with the bacon and chives. Cover loosely and chill until ready to serve.
