Main Ingredients- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 fresh eggs
- 1 strip of crispy cooked bacon
- 1 slice of mozzarella cheese
- A pinch of fresh salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
An avocado is perfectly ripe when its green skin starts to turn slightly purplish. First, cut the avocado in half. For the pit, we’ll use a knife to carefully pierce and remove it.
Step 2
With a gentle twist, the pit will pop right out! Be careful not to damage the avocado flesh too much during this step.
Step 3
Let’s gather our ingredients for today’s delicious creation: 1 ripe avocado, 2 fresh eggs, 1 strip of bacon that’s already been cooked until crispy, 1 slice of mozzarella cheese for that creamy, melty goodness, and a pinch of salt to season.
Step 4
Using a spoon, gently scoop out a little of the avocado flesh from the center to create space for the egg. Carefully crack one egg into each avocado half. Sprinkle a pinch of salt over each egg to season.
Step 5
Now it’s time for the oven! Place the avocado halves with the eggs into a preheated oven. Bake until the egg whites are set and the yolks are starting to cook. The baking time may vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on the eggs.
Step 6
Once the eggs have partially cooked, carefully remove the avocado from the oven. Crumble or chop the crispy bacon and sprinkle it over the eggs. Then, top with the slice of mozzarella cheese. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
Step 7
My oven has an air fryer function, so I used the turbo button twice for a quicker cook. Oven temperatures and cooking times can vary greatly, so adjust as needed to ensure the eggs are cooked through and the cheese is perfectly melted. Be careful not to overbake, as the avocado can become mushy.
Step 8
The moment you take it out of the oven, you’ll be greeted by a warm, inviting aroma! The ‘Baked Avocado with Egg’ is ready, boasting a delightful combination of soft avocado, perfectly cooked egg, and melted cheese.
Step 9
Serve this delightful baked avocado on a plate, perhaps accompanied by some fresh cherry tomatoes and a slice of apple for a vibrant and appealing presentation.
Step 10
This dish is also fantastic for brunch! You could start with this ‘Baked Avocado with Egg’ as a light appetizer and follow it up with a hearty main course like ‘Old-fashioned Fried Chicken.’ Of course, no fried chicken meal is complete without ketchup and a cold cola!
Step 11
Fresh from the oven, the creamy avocado, perfectly seasoned egg, savory and crisp bacon, and gooey mozzarella cheese create an incredibly irresistible flavor profile. Experience this wonderful fusion of tastes that will surely tantalize your palate!
