Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Prep and season
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Scoop out a bit more avocado from each half to make a larger cavity for the egg.
  3. Place the avocado halves on a sheet pan and crumple foil around them to keep them upright.
  4. Season the inside of each avocado with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
  5. Crack one egg into each cavity, then season each egg with salt and black pepper.
Bake and finish
  1. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the egg whites are set.
  2. Top the baked avocado halves with bacon, feta, red pepper flakes, and fresh chives or cilantro, then serve with lime wedges.

Notes

For clean slices when scooping avocado, use a spoon to remove a little extra flesh without breaking the skin. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; reheat at 350°F until warmed through. Freezing is not recommended because baked egg texture and avocado can turn watery. To make this lower-sodium, choose reduced-salt bacon and use a lighter hand with the added salt.
