Ingredients

  • 1 avocado
  • 2 eggs
  • pinch of salt
  • pinch of dried dill

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 220°C / 210°C fan oven / 425°F.
  • Slice the avocado in half and remove the core. Place the halves on a baking tray.
  • Use a spoon to dig out a larger hole in the avocados. Crack one egg in each of the halves, drizzle a pinch of salt on each, then bake them in the oven until the egg whites have solidified. This takes about 15-20 minutes*, depending on the size of your eggs.
  • Remove the avocado eggs from the oven, and drizzle with a pinch of dill before serving them.

Notes

Your cooking time might vary depending on your oven and the size of your avocado and egg. Watch it carefully, especially if you want to keep a soft yolk. You just want the egg whites to barely set and turn white. If you prefer a hard yolk, you can bake the avocado for five minutes extra.
You will have to use a ripe avocado for this recipe. It has to be soft enough to scoop out some of the middle parts of the avocado flesh.
