Baked Avocados

baked_avocado

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ripe avocados
  • 8 small farm-fresh eggs
  • 1 tablespoon melted ghee or olive oil
  • Pinch of Harissa or your favorite spice.
  • Sea salt to taste

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pits. Using a tablespoon, scoop out 1 to

2 tablespoons of avocado flesh from each half to create 8 cups, each large enough to hold one

of your eggs.

Crack an egg into each avocado “cup.” * Yolks first followed by the whites as room allows.

Drizzle each with the melted ghee and sprinkle with sea salt and seasonings.

Arrange the avocado cups in a small baking pan to fit them as close and snug as possible.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the egg whites look cooked through. Serve immediately

Notes

  • I find it easiest to crack the egg and separate the yolk from the white. Place the yolk into the avocado cup then slowly add the white a little at a time to fill the “cup”. This is a delicate process.  It is tricky to not over flow the egg white. Depending on the size eggs you use you may not use all the whites.
