• 2 tablespoons olive oil mayonnaise
• 3 slices bacon, finely chopped

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil; remove from heat and let stand, about 15 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water and cool under cold running water. Peel and cut in half.

Scoop egg yolks into a bowl. Add reserved bacon grease and peanut butter; mash well. Mix in pickles, mayonnaise, and hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 4

Spoon yolk mixture into empty egg whites. Garnish with bacon pieces and paprika.
