Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados
- 4 small eggs
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
- Fresh parsley or chives, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Halve the avocados and remove the pits. Scoop out a small amount of the flesh to make enough room for the eggs.
- Place the avocado halves on a baking tray, ensuring they are stable. You can rest them in a muffin tin to keep them upright.
- Carefully crack one egg into each avocado half. If the egg overflows, you can remove a bit of the egg white.
- Season each egg-filled avocado with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still a bit runny.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before sprinkling with chili flakes, if using, and fresh herbs.
- Serve immediately, and enjoy the creamy, savory goodness.
Helpful Tips
If you prefer fully cooked yolks, bake the avocados for an additional 2-3 minutes. For an extra creamy experience, try adding a small amount of shredded cheese or diced tomatoes before baking.
Storage Instructions
Although Avocado-Egg Boats are best enjoyed fresh, you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one day. Reheat gently in the microwave.
Ingredient Substitutions
For a different flavor profile, substitute the chili flakes with paprika or smoked paprika. Consider adding a dash of hot sauce for an extra kick or a squeeze of lemon juice for a zesty twist.
Pairings
Complement your Avocado-Egg Boats with a side of whole-grain toast, a light salad with a tangy vinaigrette, or a fresh fruit salad. For drinks, freshly squeezed orange juice or a hot cup of green tea makes for perfect accompaniments.
