Description
This easy Keto Egg Salad recipe has just four simple ingredients but is creamy and delicious. It stays low-carb served in lettuce wraps or on chaffles.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (or white vinegar)
- 1/4 cup celery or chives (optional) (finely diced)
Instructions
- In an air fryer – Place eggs in the air fryer basket. Cook at 250°F for about 16 minutes. The exact timing will vary depending on your make and model. If this is your first time cooking eggs this way, cook only 1 or 2 eggs to ensure that the timing is correct, and then cook the rest. On the stovetop – Place eggs in the bottom of a large pot and add water so that they are covered with an extra inch or two to spare at the top. Bring the water to a rolling boil, then turn it off and allow the eggs to sit for 10-12 minutes. The exact time will vary depending on your stove, pots, etc.
- When finished cooking, immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl filled with ice cold water for at least 5 minutes or until cool to touch.
- Peel eggs. Gently tap the end of each egg and then roll and crack the rest of the egg. The egg yolk should pop right out.
- Cut eggs in half and place the egg yolks in a small bowl. Use a fork to finely crumble the yolks and set aside.
- Chop the egg whites into small pieces and set aside.
- Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar to the bowl with the crumbled egg yolks and mix well to combine.
- Fold in chopped egg whites and any other ingredients, such as celery or chives.
- Enjoy on lettuce leaves, low-carb tortillas, thin-sliced bread, or chaffles!
