Best method to hard boil an egg

As simple as boiling an egg may sound, sometimes the egg is undercooked, overcooked, doesn’t peel well, or the shell cracks while it is boiling.

One of the best methods to consistently cook the perfect hard-boiled egg is to use the 5-5-5 method in the Instant Pot.

For this method, place the trivet in the liner of the instant pot, add 1 cup of water to the liner, and pile on the eggs. Allow your eggs to pressure cook for 5 minutes, then natural release for 5 minutes, and finally, put the eggs in an ice bath for 5 minutes.

In a total of 15 minutes, your eggs will come out flawless with a hard-boiled yolk, and an easy-to-peel shell. With those easy steps, your hard-boiled eggs will be ready to be turned into a fried deviled egg masterpiece.

Fried coating

The fried coating for these fried deviled eggs is only as good as the ingredients that make the crust.

In this gluten-free, keto friendly recipe, the crust is made with almond flour and pork panko. If you are having a difficult time finding pork panko in the grocery stores, you can quickly make some yourself since it is just made out of ground pork rinds.

Made ahead deviled eggs

The great part about this keto deviled eggs recipe is that you can make most of the ingredients ahead of time so that if you need to make a meal quickly, you will already have most of the work done.

Just make your hard-boiled eggs ahead of time. You can even slice them up and make the filling of your yolk mixture. That way, when you want to make fried deviled eggs, you can just quickly fry the egg whites.

You do not want to fry the eggs beforehand because they may get soggy in the refrigerator, and the outer layer won’t be crispy.

Yes! Devils eggs are mainly keto as long as you don’t add any non-keto ingredients to the filling.

The most common ingredients for deviled eggs include egg, mayo, and seasoning.

These basic ingredients make a delicious deviled egg, and they are perfectly keto-friendly. Since the ingredients are already keto, you don’t have to substitute any common ingredients to make your favorite deviled eggs recipe.
