Why Christmas Tree Deviled Eggs Are the Perfect Holiday Appetizer
Every Christmas gathering needs that one dish that makes people smile before they even take a bite. For me, that’s these Christmas Tree Deviled Eggs. They’re festive, flavorful, and perfectly bite-sized — great for guests to grab between conversations, cocoa, and carols.
You can even make it a family activity! Set up a little decorating station and let your kids help add the ornaments and stars. It’s a fun, hands-on way to make memories in the kitchen and keep little hands busy while you prep other dishes.

Crazy Busy Mama Tip
Make your Christmas Tree Deviled Eggs a day ahead! Prep the eggs and filling separately, store the whites and filling in sealed containers in the fridge, and assemble just before serving. This keeps the color bright and the filling fluffy — plus, it saves you precious time on your busy holiday day!
