For the perfect twist on a classic deviled eggs, try this incredibly flavorful miso deviled egg recipe! These miso deviled eggs are great for spring and brunch occasions and for any family gathering (and are the best deviled eggs I’ve ever had!)

Let’s talk about deviled eggs. At our family gatherings, they are among some of the first things to get gobbled up off of the brunch table. With Easter not too far off, deviled eggs are the perfect menu item to try. So, to mix things up a bit, I’m bringing miso deviled eggs for an Easter recipe. I encourage you to mix it up and use this miso deviled egg recipe to wow your family and friends!
A couple of weeks ago, I talked about how much red miso paste Nick brought home from the store – it was a huge tub (like this one)! So, I already made some miso butter for toast with hard boiled eggs, but there is still a ton left. I’m digging in and using it for these deviled eggs as well.
When I make deviled eggs, I rely on the classic Martha Stewart recipe – I used the recipe from Martha’s American Food cookbook as the base (I love that cookbook, so many good/classic recipes – side note, I heard that Martha Stewart has 94 cookbooks, makes me feel behind with my 2 published cookbooks).
Once the eggs are cooked (I like a 9 minute hard boiled egg), it’s time to peel them and fill them. I always love hearing this heated debate of how people like to peel eggs. There are plenty of options, but I’m a classic egg peeler all the way. What about you?
After peeling the eggs, cut them and it’s time to remove the yolk. This part can be tricky. I used to always break like half of the egg whites while doing this. But, now my favorite trick to getting the yolk out is to use the back of a spoon. It really helps the yolk slide out without breaking the egg white.
Combine the egg yolks with mayonnaise, miso and lemon juice and it’s time to fill the egg whites back up (also – since this is a 5-ingredient breakfast -brunch recipe, it’s perfect for Five-Ingredient Fridays)!
If you’d like to get a little fancy with the recipe, you can pipe the filling back into the eggs once combined. I’m guessing you don’t have piping bags laying around, but don’t worry, there is a super easy trick to use at home. Simply take a Ziploc bag and fold the edges down. Fill the bag with the yolk mixture, zip it up and clip a small bit of the corner off – voila, you have a piping bag!
These miso deviled eggs are perfect for Easter or anytime you’re having friends over for brunch!

Cook Time: 25 minutes minutes
Additional Time: 10 minutes minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes minutes
Servings: 16 deviled eggs
Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon red miso paste more if you'd like a stronger miso taste, I have used up to 1 tablespoon in this recipe
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 3 green onions finely chopped
Instructions
1. Place eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Water should cover eggs by 1 inch. Bring water to a rolling boil. Remove pan from heat; cover, and let stand 13 minutes.
Drain and let eggs cool. (OR - bring water to a boil in a large pot, once boiling, gently add eggs and cook for 9 minutes, remove from heat, pour out water and run eggs under cold water to 'shock' them, run under cold water until cool enough to handle, then peel).
2. Once eggs are cool. Peel eggs. Cut each egg in half and scoop out egg yolks into a medium size bowl.
3. In medium bowl, add mayonnaise, miso paste, egg yolks and lemon juice and combine until smooth (I do this with a hand mixer)
4. Spoon mixture into eggs. I do this by piping the filing in - I put filling in a Ziploc bag and cut off a corner and use it as a piping bag.
5. Top with green onions or scallions. Allow to get nice and cold in the refrigerator for 1-2 hrs before serving, then enjoy.
Notes
Use chopped scallions or green onions to top!

For Easter, I did a roast chicken, cornbread stuffing, candied sweet potatoes, not with the marshmallows, but with a nice brown sugar and cinnamon sauce, and glazed carrots. It’s just my parents and I so I didn’t do a very large spread. For dessert though, I did a chocolate cream pie, chocolate chip cookies, because my mom and I love chocolate chip, and since the following day was my moms birthday, I did a sponge cake, with this frosting made from chocolate pudding and cool whip/ whipped cream. Its something my family has made since before my mom can even remember!

For Easter I cooked your forbidden rice bowls for the family actually! Since it was a nontraditional easter this year with the virus I just took it in another direction and the dish came out amazing! I want to make these deviled eggs for Mother’s Day in a few weeks!

Sweetphi says
Thank you so much for sharing!! I love the modifications you made with those forbidden rice bowls from my 5-ingredient cookbook. I have them on my meal plan with roasted sweet potatoes for next week actually! I think you’ll love the deviled eggs for Mother’s Day -I made them for my father in law and he has asked me to make them for him again (and even had my mother in law subtly drop off the ingredients for me to make them for him lol)

Aww that’s awesome! Yes, well what I like about that cookbook of yours is it’s easy and simple and works great, it’s not overwhelming, or intimidating, if you have more ingredients handy or have more energy and feeling ambitious, you can add to it…haha. And oh my haha that’s funny!! Soo excited to try the deviled eggs for the family next! : )

We kept it simple and local this past Easter by taking advantage of Rochester Deli’s Easter meal for four, plus some extras. We just had to pick it up, warm it in the oven and serve. It was sad not being with my parents but anything to get through this.

Thank you for sharing what you did for Easter. That’s so nice that you supported a local business. I’m sad too, but it definitely makes me appreciate the family gatherings and look forward to them in the future all the more now!

Instead of ham for dinner, I bought a spiral cut ham after Easter – the expensive one. There really is a big difference in the amount of fat and quality and taste. I sliced up and separated the ham and vacuum sealed it in smaller packages. It’s easy to grab a package from the freezer and use it for soups, stews, casseroles, lunchmeat or even for breakfast with eggs. Worth every penny!

Sweetphi says
What an absolutely genius idea, thank you for sharing that! My in-laws bought one ham for .99c per pound and another at 4.99 per pound and asked us to see which one we liked better and you could totally tell the difference, we liked the 4.99 one!

I need to try this recipe. My grandmother made the best deviled eggs but did not leave a recipe behind. I made a spiral ham for Easter, it was delicious. I forget how much I love until Easter rolls around and I make one.

Hi
For Easter I made a ham that I froze in 2016 !!! Yikes, with this quarantine I’m finally getting to the back of the freezer! Anyways it was delicious, thankfully. Also cheesie potato casserole (normally calls for corn flakes on top but since I didn’t have any I used panko! I had a lot of mushrooms that were turning dark, so I layered them in a buttered 8×8 and sautéed a bunch of spinach with garlic and onions, also tossed in about 3/4 cup leftover rice layed it over the mushrooms and topped with Parmesan and some more panko they were so good! Salad and a plum cake for dessert!Reply

Your meal sounds good (I love how you made it work) and so happy to hear that ham was still good!

Hello, for Easter we made Ham. My husband always makes it so good. We also made salad, mashed potatoes(again his specialty) my daughter ate three servings , and cauliflower which we forgot to bring to the table. Ooops. We kept it low key however had kids do an Easter egg hunt in the yard. So fun to watch them run and play during this trying time. I have been layed off making things work at home virtual homeschooling the kids. Yikes! We have been enjoying lots of time together!

Your Easter meal sounds amazing. I am so so sorry to hear you were laid off, that truly makes me sad. Please let me know if I can do anything. It’s such a tough time right now. I love your positive outlook on everything. Sending lots of love!

I got temporarily laid off from my full time job, but now I’m able to help my cousin out as a nanny for her 2 young boys during the day. That also meant I could spend Easter with them. We did brunch because it had more foods her picky eaters would like. So we had: Caprese salad for the adults, ham, carrots, cheesy potatoes, fruit salad ( I cut out bunny shapes in the watermelon and cantaloupe), bunny jigglers, pancakes, mini egg quiches, blueberry muffins and bunny cake!

Thank you for sharing about your easter feast. That’s so cute that you cut the shapes out and all the things you did to make the day special. So sorry to hear you were laid off – that’s so nice that you’re helping your cousin out. Sending you lots of positive thoughts. Thanks again for commenting!

I made broccoli salad with sunflower seeds and cranberries. Left out the bacon because my younger daughter is a vegetarian and also left out the chopped onion because my MIL doesn’t like raw onion. The dressing was homemade with mayo and white wine vinegar plus a bit of sugar, salt, and pepper. It turned out good. My MIL liked it. ???

I forgot to say what else we had. Ham, Mac and cheese, potato salad, deviled eggs, and some finger food- large green olives and celery sticks stuffed with veggie dip or pimento cheese. The celery was so crisp and crunchy and I need to find out how my MIL chose such great celery or if she put in ice water to make it extra crisp-I’ve never had celery that good!

Oh my goodness, your Easter feast sounds like it was so amazing! And that celery! I’d love to know how she made it crisp too!

This is going to be quite a different Easter, with all that’s going on in the world right now, but I pray that we will overcome these new challenges. I was going to go all out for Easter this year, but I’m making a pretty minimal spread, as it’s just going to be our family. I’m cooking steak, mixed veggies and mashed potatoes – and baking hot cross buns with the kids! Thanks for all your amazing posts, I wish you and your family a blessed Easter.

Thank you for all your time and effort to reach us! Love the recipes, what to do with tuna, and cute Ben! Would love to see that deep dish pizza recipe! Happy Easter and have a blast with the growing twins. Can’t wait till they help cut with the kiddo knives. Remember this too shall pass and the warmer weather soon, no more snow!!Reply

Our Easter will look a little different this year. I’m trying to use up what I have in the house and go to the store less. We will be having brunch. I’ll make an overnight blueberry French toast bake, eggs, bacon, sausage and fruit. Happy Easter to your family! Praying good health and peace during this season.

I am living alone and working every day, so we are planning a Re Do Easter later this summer when things get back to normal. This Sunday, I will probably make something from your Pantry Staples post. It was an amazing & inspiring gift that will come in handy now and in all the tax seasons to come. Thank you for putting it together.

I usually make a ham with a bunch of side dishes, but because the kids and their families won’t be coming this year, I think we are going to grill some steaks and veggies this year. Happy Easter to you and your family!

We usually have ham and sides like asparagus and potatoes and some homemade bread rolls and carrot cake for dessert. And church.
Well, this year is weird with lockdown and empty stores, no meat, no eggs, no flour and no fresh vegetables at all anymore where we are…boo. So, this Easter it’s just going to be our daily top ramen noodles with canned peas. Will just be thankful to the good Lord for that 🙂
We’ve sure been spending a lot of time feasting my eyes on yummy blog food though. I just keep telling myself it’s a diet of sorts, albeit not a healthy one.
God bless and have a great Easter ya’ll!??????Reply

Since we’re not having any sort of get together for Easter this year, I think we’ll throw some steaks on the grill, with some roasted veggies and a pasta salad.

We love to have eggs Benedict on Easter morning, so I’m hoping Easter won’t be too weird this year, I haven’t been out of the house in over 4 weeks now and we don’t have any candy for a hunt….

Oh I love the idea of Eggs Benedict!!!! I might try to make those at home this year, thank you for the idea (and yes, agreed, this year it’s going to be so odd…I’m going to make a few homemade treats to put in the eggs I have from last year and make a few paper toys or origami to put in the easter eggs.)

Pinterest has some creative ideas for filling Easter eggs without candy. When my daughter was a pre-teen, we filled hers with change from my husband’s change drawer. We also made coupons for extra screen time, extra minutes before bedtime, etc. Good luck.

These deviled eggs look amazing. Can’t wait to try them! Our Easter dinner is the good ‘ol standby – Ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, and fresh asparagus. It’ll be a little different this year, with no big family dinner, but we’ll make up for it next year!

Well, this year Easter dinner will just be the boys and I. My wife is a nurse and works every weekend. Amid the current crisis, she is unable to get any extra time off work. With her profession, and mine as a fireman, we’ve decided to totally lock our family down as to not potentially pass this virus onto anybody else, including our old and fragile parents. Its a pretty difficult time for us and our parents, they can’t see their grandchildren for a very long time! Everything is pretty much on hold for the next few months and maybe longer! With that said, we might be making homemade pizza…It’s our favorite!
Reply
Sweetphi says
Thank you to you and your wife for your crucial jobs and sacrifice you’re making. Hearing this makes me tear up. The current situation is so heartbreaking. My family is also all staying put, and it’s hard and an adjustment to not see parents/grandparents who live a mile away. Your homemade pizza sounds like a lovely plan, thank you for sharing, and stay well!

It will be a different kind of Easter, for sure, this year. Without family and friends to help us celebrate, I am afraid to make a big traditional ham dinner for just the 3 of us because I have been extra careful in food prep these past few weeks, avoiding waste as much as possible. But I still want to do something special to mark it as a holiday and to have a nice family dinner, hopefully on the patio, if the weather cooperates! So I have decided to make Easter dinner a celebration of faith that we will make our way through this and a celebration of the local bounty that surrounds us by supporting local farms.
We will have a salad of early spring greens from our local greenhouse with nut crusted goat cheese from a local dairy, fresh bread (from my oven), and I will be grilling up bison steaks from a nearby specialty farm and picking up pies from a (another) nearby berry farm that specializes in fruit pies, along with a pint of their homemade ice cream.
It is more important than ever to shop what is local and fresh! Support the farmers, fishermen, and dairies whenever you can.Reply
Sweetphi says
Thank you so so much for sharing this. Your comment gave me goosebumps because it is so special what you’re doing. I love the idea of a celebration of faith and local bounty, and all the recipes you’re making at home. I too have been trying to support local and fresh, we have a favorite restaurant that in addition to offering ‘meal kits’ to make at home, offers food from local farmers and small businesses (like the local chocolatier!) Thank you again for sharing your lovely ideas.

Just wanted to follow up and let you know that our Easter dinner turned out wonderful! We had beautiful local bison steaks and the weather cooperated so I was able to grill. I was able to get salad greens, a delicious local goat cheese that I coated in nuts and lemon peel, and a decadent strawberry rhubarb pie all from farms not 20 minutes away! I loved being able to bring business to my ‘neighbors’ and feeding my family a healthy meal that was truly from the heart.

We are like everyone, it will be a strange Easter this year for my husband and I . I have gone from working 60-65 hours. Week and 6 days a week to being laid off like so many on March 27 I will find a special dessert to make but am thinking, I may order from one of the local restaurants who are trying to stay afloat. I typically make turkey and ham. A long post to say I still am grateful and blessed and trying to figure out something I can do to give back so plan to donate blood next week. (I know that sounds like such a small thing, but it will leave me tired for days. God Bless You All. Stay well.

Usually I make a ham for Easter. This year since it will just be me and my husband, I think we will grill out. The one thing I like to do is make dessert when the kids come home (normally I don’t make sweets – to tempting). I think this year I will still make a dessert for the two of us.
Reply
Sweetphi says
I think grilling out sounds lovely. I was just talking to my husband about that, so thank you for sharing, it’s now top of my mind. This year it will be so different, I hope you and your family stay safe, and I hope you find a lovely dessert for two (I have two recipes I’d like to share that might be of interest to you – https://sweetphi.com/5-ingredient-pear-crumble-two/ and https://sweetphi.com/5-ingredient-dessert-chocolate-cake-two/ )

This will be a strange Easter this year as we will not be hosting the family party for the first time in over 20 years.
To compensate though, I get to make one of our favorite lamb recipes, Pan Roasted Frenched Rack of Lamb, a meal that I “borrowed from a Pierre Franey episode about 25 or so years ago. There will be grilled asparagus and a cauliflower/potato puree
My kids grew up watching Saturday morning “Cartoons” with dad, except we watched Channel 2 , the local PBS station, and the cartoon characters were Jaques Pepin, Julia Child, Martin Yan and the aforementioned Pierre.
To try an have some semblence of family, we are coordinating with folks to have a pre-dinnervirtual wine party across 3 time zones!Reply
Sweetphi says
This will definitely be a strange Easter. Thank you so much for sharing your comment. I LOVED hearing about the Saturday morning “Cartoons” – so so great! My toddler son (almost 3) loves watching cooking shows, then he runs into my office where my cookbook collection is and always wants to find a recipe and make what he saw on TV. I think I might need to find that lamb recipe, it sounds amazing. Also, what a great idea about the virtual wine party, I am going to try that with some friends, so thank you for the idea!!! Hope you and your family stay safe, and thank you again for your lovely comment.
