Bacon Jalapeno Deviled Eggs are a delicious dish that adds a kick to the traditional spring, summer, or Easter appetizer!
Deviled Eggs are one of my favorite recipes this time of year, well any time of year really. They’re so easy to make. You can serve up the classic version or come up with all kinds of yummy flavor combinations. One of my all-time favorite flavor pairings is jalapeno and bacon. I don’t know what it is about those ingredients together but it’s magical when it hits my mouth. I’ve made Bacon Jalapeno Popper Quiche, Jalapeno Popper Stuffed Mushrooms, and today I’m sharing one of my most popular recipes ever, Bacon Jalapeno Deviled Eggs!

When I think of family gatherings, deviled eggs immediately come to mind. My mother-in-law made incredibly tasty ones and when we lived in Pennsylvania. We got to eat them every Easter, because we like to focus on an appetizer spread instead of a classic Eggs Benedict brunch vibe. Over the years I started taking deviled eggs to birthday parties, summer picnics, and game day get togethers. My husband loves deviled eggs, so last year when my brother was visiting for Easter, I made his mom’s recipe. Everyone went absolutely nuts for them!
How to make Bacon Jalapeno Deviled Eggs
While the classic deviled eggs are fantastic, I wanted to add a little twist to them. With my slight obsession for bacon and jalapeno, I thought it would be awesome to add them to my MIL’s recipe. So I created Real Housemoms Bacon Jalapeno Deviled Eggs. It’s such a fantastic combination of flavors! My husband and I devoured the whole plate in one sitting. My family looks forward to me serving these eggs every year for Easter now, and they’ve become the recipe all my friends request I bring to potlucks and parties. One bite and your friends & family will be asking the same!

Large Pot: This pot is a kitchen essential for everything from dinner to desserts. I use mine all the time and with proper care, it’ll last for years and years.
Mixing Bowl: These mixing bowls are perfect for mixing and serving. I love the varied sizes so I always have to right size bowl for all my mixing needs.
Ziploc Bag: My kitchen drawer is always stocked with zipper top plastic bags. They’re great for storage, but I find myself using them for everything from deviled eggs to frosting too!
Rubber Spatula: Rubber spatulas are one of those kitchen tools you don’t realize how much you use until they’re all dirty. This set of three spatulas in various sizes and shapes will make cooking everything from dinner to dessert a breeze.

This looks delicious. Gotta try this weekend.

While we liked the bacon and jalapeno, these deviled eggs had way too much mayo for my family. The mayo taste overpowered the other flavors even after resting in the fridge for 24 hours. So I would make these again, but I would only add about 1/4 of mayo to the mix.
Aubrey Cota says
I think that’s what makes these recipes so great, the ability to customize makes it all worth it!
dannie says
this is a great way of making on love eggs by adding other ingredients to give it a nice taste.
Diana says
Same question, wet or dry ground mustard?
Julie @Real Housemoms says
Hi Diana! It’s dry ground mustard. Sorry for the confusion. We’ve updated the recipe card to reflect this. 🙂
Dolandi says
Can I make these the night before? I have a family gathering tomorrow at 12pm and I’m in charge of snacks. Would love to make these. Just want to know if I can make them tonight already to serve them tomorrow? Even if I can just do all the preparation tonight and the piping tomorrow. Or should I rather make them tomorrow morning?
Aubrey Cota says
Make ahead is fine, just be sure to keep it in an air tight container and mix well before piping.
Sharon Reid says
I made these for a housewarming party, they were a hit. Will make again
Aubrey Cota says
Awesome, they are just as good on a regular Tuesday night too!
Melissa B says
These are the absolute best deviled eggs I’ve ever had! I won’t make them any other way. Everyone that has tried them asks for the recipe.
Laura Smith says
This recipe takes a smudge of delicate touch to make. Else, you mess it up.
Amy Mills says
These are SO GOOD! I follow the recipe pretty closely, but the last couple of times I made them, I added a couple shakes of creole seasoning for a little extra kick. Delicious!
Julie @Real Housemoms says
Creole seasoning sounds like a great addition!
Jenn says
May I use your photo and post your recipe on my Instagram? They were delicious deviled eggs! I’ll mention the name of your blog as well.
Jamie says
can you use bacon bits or does it need to be real bacon?
Julie @Real Housemoms says
That’s your call to make Jamie. 🙂
Elaine says
These were excellent. We like our food pretty spicey so we added some seeds. They were a hit at Thanksgiving and were requested again for Christmas brunch.
Julie @Real Housemoms says
Yay! These eggs are definitely one of our most requested recipes!
Brittany says
Made these last year … in rotation again! Yummy
Andrea says
Can I substitute anything for the rice vinegar?
SForsythe says
I’ve made these many times and they are The Bomb!! Love, Love them!!! Thanks for the recipe! Taking these to the KC football game tomorrow!! Go Chiefs!!!
Melissa Burnette says
These are the absolute best deviled eggs I’ve ever had! I’ve made these several times now at home and for holiday meals. I’ve had to share the recipe with lots of people that have tried them and requested the recipe..even from people that don’t like jalapeños. Once you seed the jalapeños they aren’t hot at all and my kids love them too. Thanks for the recipe!
Ben says
These are amazing. I made them for a bacon themed party my wife and I had last night and they were a hit. My only suggestion would be to saute the jalapeno in the bacon grease, unless you want the texture of a raw pepper. I also used a red pepper flake rice vinegar to make it pop just a little more.
Julie @Real Housemoms says
Bacon fat makes everything better. 😉
Yvonne De La Garza says
The only thing I’d tweak in this recipe is to fry or boil the jalapeños 1st and then chop them. I made this recipe this past weekend and the jalapeños were just to crunchy:P The bacon is already crunchy enough which tastes amazing but other than that it’s an amazing recipe and will recommend it to anyone!:) ty

Saw this recipe on Yummly! We are also from Arizona!! Love seeing recipes for deviled eggs that have a spicy component! We also created a deviled egg recipe, but instead of jalapenos we used poblanos! We’d love for you to check it out! http://2geekswhoeat.com/in-time-for-super-bowl-50-diego-deviled-eggs
