🕒 Prep & Cook Time

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 12–15 minutes
Total Time: 20–25 minutes
Servings: 4 (1 avocado half per serving)
Net Carbs: ~2–3g per serving

🛒 Ingredients

2 large ripe avocados
4 large eggs
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (or mozzarella)
¼ tsp sea salt
¼ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp paprika (optional)
1 tbsp chopped fresh chives or parsley
Optional: red pepper flakes, hot sauce, diced tomatoes

🔪 Instructions

1️⃣ Preheat & Prep

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a small baking dish.

2️⃣ Prepare the Avocados

Slice each avocado in half lengthwise and remove the pit.
Using a spoon, scoop out about 1 tablespoon of flesh from each half to make room for the egg. (Save the scooped avocado for guacamole or a smoothie!)

Tip: If the avocados wobble, trim a tiny slice off the bottom to help them sit flat.

3️⃣ Add the Eggs

Place the avocado halves in the baking dish.
Carefully crack one egg into each avocado cavity.
If your avocados are small, crack the egg into a bowl first and gently spoon the yolk and some of the whites into the center.

4️⃣ Season & Top

Sprinkle salt, pepper, and paprika over the eggs.
Top with shredded cheese and crumbled bacon.

5️⃣ Bake

Bake for 12–15 minutes, depending on how you like your eggs:

12 minutes = soft yolk
15 minutes = firmer yolk

Keep an eye on them — egg whites should be set but yolks slightly jiggly (they continue cooking after removal).

6️⃣ Garnish & Serve

Remove from oven and sprinkle with fresh herbs.
Add red pepper flakes or hot sauce if desired.

Serve immediately while warm and creamy.

🥓 Flavor Variations

Mexican Style:
Add taco seasoning, diced jalapeños, and top with sour cream and cilantro.

Mediterranean:
Use feta cheese, cherry tomatoes, and a drizzle of olive oil.

Breakfast Sausage:
Swap bacon for cooked crumbled sausage.

Dairy-Free:
Skip the cheese and add sautéed spinach or mushrooms instead.

💡 Keto Tips

Choose avocados that are ripe but still firm so they hold their shape.
For extra fat (and flavor), drizzle with olive oil before baking.
Pair with black coffee or bulletproof coffee for a fully keto-friendly breakfast.

🧊 Storage & Meal Prep

Best eaten fresh.
Can be stored in the fridge up to 1 day.
Reheat gently in the oven or air fryer at low heat (microwave may overcook the egg).
