I like to cut a thin strip off the rounded bottom of the avocado so that it lies flat on the baking sheet making it more sturdy.

Recipe Card
ingredients
- 2 avocados, halved and pitted
- 4 thick slices bacon
- 4 eggs
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives
Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet over medium and cook the bacon until crisp.
Step 3
Spoon out the avocado around the area the pit was to make the hole a bit bigger, then put avocado on the baking sheet. Place a slice of bacon in each avocado half. Crack an egg into each, making sure to keep the yolk in the hole.
Step 4
Bake for 12-15 minutes until eggs cook through. The yolk will jiggle when if you shake the pan, but whites will be set.
Step 5
Add salt and pepper to taste and top with chopped chives.
