FAQ
-
Can I prepare this ahead of time?
It's best to bake the avocados and eggs immediately after preparation. Preparing ahead of time can cause the avocado to brown and the eggs to become watery. -
Can I use different seasonings?
Yes! Feel free to experiment with different seasonings. Garlic powder, paprika, chili flakes, or Italian seasoning would all be delicious alternatives. -
What if my avocadoes are small?
Use smaller eggs, such as quail eggs, or only use half an egg per avocado.
