How about adding a crunch and texture to the soft and warm avocado? Here is a brilliant idea for a Sunday brunch! Bacon and eggs baked in avocado! It sounds too good to be true, but the better part is you don’t need much neither time nor material, so give it a try, belive me, you won´t regret!
All you need:
- 1 slice bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 2 large avocadoes
- 4 large eggs
- Salt and pepper
- aluminum foil for the pan
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 400 F. Cook the bacon and reserve. In a loaf pan or a small casserole pan, use crumpled foil to create a stable base for the avocado halves. Slice the avocado and remove the pit, then spoon out about 2 tablespoons of the avocado flesh where the pit was to make the hollow large enough for the egg. Then skim a thin layer off the surface up to the rim formed by the skin.
- Set the avocado halves in the pan on the aluminum foil, scrunching the foil to hold them level. Crack each egg and carefully slip into the avocado half. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then bake for 25-30 minutes, until the whites are completely cooked and the yolk is at the desired level of firmness. Transfer to serving plates and sprinkle with crumbled bacon.
- Serve immediately
