Low-Carb Baked Eggs with Avocado and Feta are a delicious quick breakfast option for avocado fans, and did you know Feta Cheese is super low in carbs?

A few years ago I became infatuated with the idea of baking eggs in individual serving dishes, and I really enjoyed Baked Eggs with Mushrooms and Parmesan and Baked Eggs with Asparagus and Parmesan, so if the idea of avocado baked with eggs and Feta doesn’t appeal to you, you might like one of those earlier ones. But we absolutely loved these Baked Eggs with Avocado and Feta when we tested the recipe!

We just ate the eggs and avocado like you see it, which would be perfect if you’re wanting this for a low-carb meal. This is a quick breakfast that can be on the table in about 30 minutes, but you do need to take time to heat the dishes while the eggs and avocado come to room temperature if you want those perfectly cooked but still soft eggs like you see in these photos. And if you don’t have little gratin dishes like this that can go in the oven, just use a casserole dish and cook it all together, which might need one or two minutes longer to cook.

I’m going to add this to my earlier round-up of Low-Carb Breakfasts with Avocado, so if you’re an avocado fan you might like some of those ideas as well! And if you don’t care if this breakfast is low in carbs, some whole wheat toast dipped into the eggs would definitely be good.

What ingredients do you need for this recipe?

• eggs
• avocado
• olive oil or non-stick spray for gratin dishes
• crumbled Feta Cheese (see notes)
• salt and fresh-ground black pepper to taste

How to make this recipe:

(Scroll down for complete printable recipe including nutritional information.)

1. Break each egg into an individual ramekin and let eggs and avocados come to room temperature for 15 minutes while you heat the gratin dishes (or a large casserole dish) in a preheated 400F/200C oven.
2. After 15 minutes, peel the avocado and cut each half into six slices.
3. Spray gratin dishes with non-stick spray and arrange avocados in each dish.
4. VERY CAREFULLY tip eggs into each dish on top of the avocado, then sprinkle with crumbled Feta cheese.
5. Bake 12-15 minutes or less, until whites are set and yolks are done to your liking.
6. Serve hot. This is good with Green Tabasco Sauce (affiliate link) to add at the table.
