Baked Avocado Recipe

Ingredients:

• Avocado: 1 ripe avocado
• Eggs: 2 small (or 1 large, depending on avocado size)
• Salt: to taste
• Pepper: to taste
• Red Pepper Flakes: (optional, for a spicy kick)
• Cheese: (optional, such as feta or cheddar), grated
• Fresh Herbs: (optional, such as parsley or chives) for garnish
• Lemon Juice: (optional, for flavor)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).

2. Prepare the Avocado:

   • Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. If the hole where the pit was is small, scoop out a little extra flesh to make more room for the egg.

3. Place in a Baking Dish:

   • Place the avocado halves in a baking dish, cut side up. You may want to nestle them in a little bit of crumpled foil to keep them stable.

4. Add the Egg:

   • Carefully crack an egg into each avocado half. If you’re using two eggs, you can divide the yolk and white between the two halves.

5. Season:

   • Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). You can also add cheese on top if desired.

6. Bake:

   • Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the egg white is set but the yolk is still runny (or to your desired doneness).

7. Garnish and Serve:

   • Remove from the oven, drizzle with a little lemon juice, and garnish with fresh herbs if desired. Serve immediately.

Tips:

• For added flavor, you can mix in spices or other toppings, like cooked bacon or tomatoes, before baking.
• Serve with toast or a simple salad for a complete meal.
