These hard-boiled eggs taste just as good as the real thing without the cholesterol or the cruelty. They are so easy to make with a few simple ingredients.
A year ago at Expo West, I was introduced to a plant-based hard-boiled egg and it was love at first bite. I have been craving these vegan eggs ever since and searching my local stores for plant-based eggs without any luck. I was so excited when I discovered a recipe for vegan hard-boiled eggs and I knew that I had to make them.
It was a discovery of Wunder Eggs that inspired me to make these vegan deviled eggs. Since my local grocery stores don't carry them, I had to make them. If you have a chance to buy Wunder Eggs, you need to try them as they are so good and taste like real hard-boiled eggs. For those meat eaters, who say "Why don't you eat the real thing?", I say to them ~ my body is healthier on a plant-based diet.
I just love that there are so many delicious plant-based products and recipes, so I never feel deprived when eating. Even with my many food allergies, I find plenty to eat thanks to all the companies that make allergy-friendly food. This plant egg recipe is perfect for those with food allergies as it contains no dairy, soy, wheat, or nuts.
It all started with a vegan deviled egg salad recipe
My inspiration for creating these delicious vegan eggs all started with my discovery of a Vegan Deviled Egg Salad recipe on Instagram. I saw a recipe video and when I searched for recipes for vegan deviled egg spread, some of the recipe sites had instructions on how to make vegan egg whites.
After I made the deviled egg salad, I knew that I had to make the white portion of the deviled eggs. The problem was I did not have all the ingredients that were needed to make the plant-based egg white recipe.
The recipe needed agar agar powder and an egg mold. So I ordered the silicone egg mold, the agar agar powder, and the special black salt that tastes like eggs on Amazon.

How to Make Vegan Hard-Boiled Eggs
This recipe has a couple of different parts and steps to make the finished product. It is really 2 recipes in one. You have to make the vegan egg white part in the egg mold and let it set before you can fill it with the vegan deviled eggs.
Making the vegan egg white
The plant-based egg white is made with plant-based milk and agar agar powder. If you have never heard of agar agar, it is a vegan gelatin. So the agar powder is what transforms the milk into the white part. The Kala Namak or black salt gives the white part the egg taste.
Making the vegan egg yolk
While you are waiting a couple of hours for the white halves to form, you can make the yellow yolky part. The vegan deviled egg salad is made from chickpeas, vegan mayo, nutritional yeast, and some other ingredients. You simply combine the ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Then once the white section is done, you fill them with the vegan egg salad.
Recipe Tips
~ Place the filled egg white molds in the fridge for 2 or more hours.
~ Remove the egg whites from the mold once they are firm
~ Use a half teaspoon to remove a section from the egg white for the egg yolk filling
~ Make sure the egg yolk filling is room temperature or colder before filling the egg whites
~ Use a pastry bag for the yellow egg filling to make it easier to fill the whites or a small melon baller
~ Serve the vegan eggs on the egg mold
~ Place leftover eggs in the fridge for up to a week
~ Sprinkle the egg with salt, paprika, or everything bagel spice seasoning
~ Use the leftover "egg" white sections and combine them with leftover egg salad and pickle relish for a delicious egg salad

The use of coconut milk, kala namak, and agar agar powder for the egg whites is such a creative and plant-based twist. The deviled egg salad made from chickpeas, vegan mayo, and nutritional yeast is a fantastic alternative.
