Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Cut the avocado in half lengthwise and remove the pit.
- Scoop out about 1-2 tablespoons of avocado flesh from each half to create a larger well for the egg.
- Place the avocado halves in a baking dish or on a baking sheet. You may need to stabilize them by crumpling up pieces of aluminum foil and placing them around the avocado halves to keep them upright.
- Carefully crack the egg and gently pour the yolk into the well of one avocado half, then add some of the egg white until the well is full. Repeat with the other half.
- Sprinkle a dash of salt and a dash of black pepper over each egg-filled avocado half.
- Place the baking dish or sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your preference.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your avocado egg bake as a wholesome breakfast or snack!
Tips:
- Choose a ripe but firm avocado to ensure it holds its shape during baking.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) for the best results.
- Scoop out a bit of the avocado flesh to create a larger cavity for the egg.
- Use a small or medium-sized egg to prevent overflow.
- Place the avocado halves in a muffin tin to keep them upright during baking.
- For added flavor, consider sprinkling a bit of cheese or herbs on top before baking.
With just a few simple ingredients, the Avocado Egg Bake offers a quick and nutritious option that’s perfect for any time of the day. By following these tips, you can ensure your dish comes out perfectly every time. Enjoy your delicious and healthy meal!
