Ingredients

• 6 pieces large eggs
• 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon creamy almond butter
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons roasted pecans
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons smoked paprika
• 1 tablespoon fresh chives (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 2

While the eggs cook, prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with ice and water.

Step 3

Once the eggs are done cooking, transfer them immediately to the ice bath to cool for 5-10 minutes. This makes them easier to peel.

Step 4

Peel the eggs carefully, then slice them in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a medium mixing bowl. Arrange the egg whites on a platter or serving dish.

Step 5

Mash the egg yolks with a fork until smooth. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, almond butter, and lemon juice. Mix until creamy and fully combined.

Step 6

Finely chop the roasted pecans and stir them into the egg yolk mixture. Add salt, black pepper, and half of the smoked paprika, adjusting the seasoning to taste.

Step 7

Using a spoon or a piping bag fitted with a star tip, fill the hollow centers of the egg whites with the yolk mixture.

Step 8

Sprinkle the remaining smoked paprika on top of the filled eggs for a pop of color and flavor. Garnish with chopped fresh chives, if desired.

Step 9

Refrigerate the deviled eggs for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld, or serve immediately. Enjoy your Nutty Deviled Eggs!
