How to make Baked Eggs in Avocado:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet or small pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

Slice an avocado in half and carefully remove the pit.

Avocado sliced in half with the pit removed.

Flip them over and carefully level the bottom of the avocado by slicing the high point off with a sharp knife.

A sliver of skin is cut off of the bottom of the avocado to make it sit flat.

This will help your avocado stay flat. If you do not feel comfortable slicing the bottom of a slippery, round object; simply place the halves into a baking dish in a way that they rest against the sides to prop them up.

Remove some of the inside of the avocado to allow room for the egg, about a Tablespoon should do.

Crack an egg and pour it into the cavity of the avocado. Repeat with the second egg.

Avocado halves filled with a raw egg and sprinkled with salt and pepper.

My large eggs were closer to extra-large!

Sprinkle with sea salt and pepper and place in the preheated oven. Bake until the whites are set, about 12 to 15 minutes if you like a runny inside. Cook for 15 to 18 minutes for a hard set center.

Remove from oven and top with chopped bacon and chives or everything bagel seasoning, or both. It’s up to you!!

Start your day off the right way with these high protein and high fiber Baked Avocado Egg Cups. One topped with bacon and chives, the other with everything bagel seasoning.

Serve immediately.
