Instructions
Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 220 degrees Celsius or 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Halve the avocados and remove the pits. Scoop out a little extra flesh to make a larger well so the egg fits without overflowing.
Position the Avocados
Place the avocado halves in a baking dish. If they roll, scrunch some aluminum foil around the base to stabilize them so the egg does not spill out during baking.
Add the Eggs and Bake
Crack one small egg into each avocado half. Sprinkle with smoked paprika and sea salt. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes depending on how set you like your yolks.
Garnish and Serve
Remove from the oven and immediately top with crumbled bacon and freshly chopped chives. Serve straight from the baking dish with toast on the side if desired.
