How to make avocado breakfast egg
- Prep your avocados – slice in half and remove the pit.
- Load your avocado slices – crack an egg into each half, top with salt, pepper, Parmesan, and parsley.
- Cook – bake for 12-14 mins (or until the eggs are done to your liking).
- Garnish, serve, and enjoy!
Recipe notes and tips
- Try looking for the larger avocados since they work better for this recipe. They have a larger pit and thus a larger space for eggs.
- If your avocado has a small pit, use a spoon to remove some of the avocado meat and make room for the egg.
- You’ll need to keep the avocado upright, so the egg stays in. You can place them in ramekins to make it easier.
- If you don’t have a ramekin, no problem! You can lean the avocados next to each other, supporting them.
- When cracking the eggs into the avocado, be careful not to break the yolk.
- For a spicy kick, sprinkle on some crushed red chili flakes.
- In place of Parmesan, you can top with cheddar or crumbled feta.
- Top with chopped fresh tomatoes, for a pop of freshness.
Frequently asked questions
If the avocado gives in to firm gentle pressure then you know it’s ripe and ready to eat. Ripe, avocados might have a darker color but color can vary so it is best to go by feel as well. It will feel slightly soft but it will not feel squidgy to the touch. A ripe avocado is perfect for that day.
This recipe is best made fresh, you don’t want to re-cook the eggs or avocado. Also, if you want to prep things in advance, you can prep the garnishes. But this baked avocado egg takes only a few minutes to prep, so it’s quick, even if you don’t make it ahead of time!
It can be stored in the fridge for 3 days, but the avocado will discolor, so I recommend baking what you intend to eat.
Variations and swaps
If you are making this Baked avocado egg and wondering what other toppings you can add? There are many options. You can add chili flakes, fresh parsley, onions, bacon bits, cheese, herbs, and spices. Don’t want to use eggs? You can stuff your avocados with these other options instead: tuna, shredded chicken, veggies, ground taco beef, shrimp, and so on.

was so easy and delicious. and I tried it with scrambled eggs and it was prettier and just as good for those that don’t like that gooey yummy yolk texture.
Glad you loved it
The calories should be more according to fitness pal. 240 for the avocado and 140 for the eggs plus other bits and bobs
Excellent recipe. I would only add if using a ramekin, increase your baking time. I had to cook 20 mins for an over easy egg! Worth it! DELICIOUS!
OMG! This recipe is so delicious !!
WOW I have never baked avocado before. These are wonderful. I added ham and cheddar cheese, that’s what I had on hand. Thank you.
Thanks for the feedback.
