A simple dessert that is delicious year-round or during Passover.

Super easy and delicious

I made this in my toaster oven; temperature set a little higher than 425, and it came out great! We had turkey bacon on the side rather than as a crumbled topping. It was easy and delicious.

People were complaining about wasting the egg whites… I figured that one out and I use nonstick aluminum foil under the avocado then when the egg white clothes over it’s easy to get out and it comes out perfect. I also add lime pepper to the avocado and then put the egg in. It’s a really great quick breakfast

Super filling and without bacon. Delish!

my husband and his parents were all excited to try this. if you’re a fan of baked avocado this may be your thing; unfortunately, this wasn’t anyone’s favorite and much was left uneaten. it was pretty. it was a nice idea. not for us.

Excellent recipe. Eggs and avocado came out creamy and flavorful. Good for an elegant lunch or as a light main course for supper. Serve it with a green salad. Especially good for me as a diabetic because its carbohydrate count is low. It is now on my meal plan rotation. I would recommend using a large avocado so your egg can fit comfortably in the cavity. Also seated my avocado halves in a sprayed muffin tin to stabilize them. I did not lose any egg due to spillage. BTW, the avocado skin is edible much like the skin of a baked potato.

This tasted very good, but there was quite a bit of waste with the egg whites since they all spilled over onto the cookie sheet.
