It might seem odd to bake an avocado, but you'll love how creamy and luscious it becomes—especially with a bacon-topped egg nestled in the centre. Serve with a dash of hot sauce and a few toast soldiers for dipping.

Ingredients

Method

In skillet, cook bacon over medium heat, turning once, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Drain on paper towel–lined plate. Chop bacon; keep warm.

Using spoon, scoop out some of the avocado flesh, leaving 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick walls; reserve flesh for another use.


Place each avocado half, cut side up, in well of muffin tin to stabilize; sprinkle with half each of the salt and pepper. Crack one egg into each avocado half; sprinkle with bacon and remaining salt and pepper.

Bake in 425°F (220°C) oven until whites are just set and yolks are still runny, about 15 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
