Ingredients
Scale
2 ripe avocados
4 large eggs
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
Optional toppings: chopped chives, red pepper flakes, cooked bacon bits
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pits.
Scoop out a little bit of the avocado flesh from the center of each half to create a larger well for the egg. You can save the scooped avocado for another use.
Place the avocado halves in a small baking dish or on a baking sheet. Ensure they are stable.
Crack one egg into the center of each avocado half.
Season the eggs with salt and pepper to your liking.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired consistency.
Carefully remove from the oven.
Add any optional toppings before serving.
Notes
Choose avocados that are ripe but still firm to the touch.
If you prefer your yolks runny, keep an eye on them and remove them from the oven sooner.
For a different flavor, you can add a sprinkle of cheese or a dash of hot sauce before baking.
