Avocado Baked Eggs – Sugar Balance

Avocado Baked Eggs

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 ripe avocados
  • 2 fresh eggs
  • 1 tablespoon chopped green onion
  • Salt and pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 400 F degrees.
  2. Line a baking sheet or baking pan with foil or parchment paper (for easier cleanup).
  3. Cut avocados in half and scoop an additional 1-2 tablespoons of the avocado flesh out to create a larger nest for the eggs.
  4. Position the avocado halves propped against the baking dish or touching the other avocados snugly to avoid spilling over. You can also place a small ramekin and prop them against the avocados.
  5. Gently crack one egg in each avocado half – if needed – save some of the egg whites in another bowl if the avocado well is too small.
  6. Bake for 13-18 minutes, or until the whites are set and the egg yolks are cooked to your liking.
  7. 13-14 min. – softer yolks
  8. 15-16 min. – medium yolks
  9. 17-18 min. – hard boiled yolks
  10. Top with chopped green onion, salt and pepper to taste
