A cosy, low-carb brunch that looks impressive with almost no effort. Ready in fifteen minutes.
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Halve the avocados and remove the stones. Scoop out a little extra flesh to make room for the egg.
Sit the avocado halves snugly in a small baking dish so they don't tip. Crack an egg into each hollow.
Season with salt, pepper and paprika. Sprinkle over cheese if using.
Bake for 12–15 minutes until the whites are set and the yolks still runny. Scatter with chives and serve.
Reed avocados are the perfect size for this — they hold a whole egg without spilling over.
