I’ve taken the pickled egg that we all know and love with beet juice and sugar on an adventure. You probably had these at your grandma’s house or favorite bar. Well, at least that’s where we did! That big ol’ purple jar with the goods staring at you….
Where’s that gorgeous color from on these Naturally Dyed Deviled Eggs? I used POM Wonderful 100% pomegranate juice. NO sugar added, the natural sweetness in the juice takes care of it all! It’s a fun, different spin, a conversation piece for sure.
The pomegranate juice is infused in the egg whites. It’ll totally wow your guests, and they’ll be coming back for more.
EGG TIPS
First, start with a great pasture raised egg, you know I love Vital Farms eggs! Get them room temp, leave on the counter while boiling the water. Bring water to a rolling boil THEN add in the eggs gently with a slotted spoon.
Next, set timer for 11-12 minutes if your on a gas stove 13-14 on electric. That’s it! Remove quickly and submerge in an ice bath. Cut them in half lengthwise, remove the yolks and put them in a separate dish.
In a large mason jar, you’re going to add the pomegranate juice and vinegar. Make sure your egg whites are completely submerged under the pomegranate juice and let them sit in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours.

Once they’re infused with color, pull them out of the jar and pat them dry with a paper towel. Assemble them on your an egg tray. Now it’s time to mix your deviled egg yolks. We’re keeping it really easy and simple so it just compliments that subtle sweet pomegranate flavor.
Put the mix it into a gallon baggie, this is going to act as a piping bag for you. Cut one bottom corner and squeeze into the yolk area of the egg. Fill them up so the mix is just over the egg white, then go back around again with any left over. This way everyone’s covered!
Once you’re finished, top it off with a little bit of pepper and you’re ready to go to the partAyy. ENJOY!
