Baked Eggs in Avocado

Baked Eggs in Avocado is a nutritious and satisfying breakfast that combines creamy avocado with perfectly baked eggs, creating a delightful blend of flavors and textures. This high-protein dish is not only quick to prepare but also visually appealing, making it a perfect start to your day.

Ingredients

• Avocado - 2 large, ripe
• Eggs - 4 large
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1/4 teaspoon
• Fresh chives - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Olive oil - 1 teaspoon
• Feta cheese - 30 grams, crumbled (optional)

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
2. Slice the avocados in half and remove the pit. Use a spoon to scoop out a little extra flesh to create enough space for the eggs.
3. Place the avocado halves in a baking dish, cut side up, and drizzle with olive oil.
4. Crack an egg into each avocado half. If the egg is too large, you can discard a bit of the white to fit it in.
5. Sprinkle salt, black pepper, and paprika evenly over the eggs.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain slightly runny.
7. Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped chives and crumbled feta cheese if using.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy breakfast.
