Loaded Avocados Stuffed with Eggs
Loaded Avocado Baked Eggs
My whole family loves avocados, every time the kids see avocados in the grocery bags when I get home from grocery shopping they are all asking how long until we eat them.
For the longest time we enjoyed avocados as a dinner or lunch food, and then we found avocados stuffed with eggs topped with cheese and bacon and oh yum!
A ridiculously easy to make low carb breakfast, that everyone devoured! Perfect, because I need easy breakfasts for the kids in the morning that can be made while we are all getting fully functional for the day. It takes this momma bit to wake up after the first cup of coffee in the morning. 😉

Benefits of Avocados
Avocados have many benefits; they are high in protein, low in carbs, and super filling. Avocados may help you lose weight by keeping you full for longer periods of time.
Avocados are high in potassium. A 3.5 ounce serving gives you 14% of the recommended daily allowance (compared to 10% in bananas!). Higher potassium intake is linked to reduced blood pressure.
Avocados are rich in fiber. Fiber has important benefits for weight loss, digestion, and metabolic health.
Studies have shown that avocado and soybean oil extracts can significantly reduce symptoms of osteoarthritis.
Pro tips for Avocado Baked Eggs
Use large avocados and medium-sized eggs.
Cracking each egg into a small bowl before carefully pouring it into the avocado will also help prevent spills.
To keep your egg-filled avocados from tipping over while baking, position them over the holes of a muffin tin, rather than on a flat baking sheet, before placing them in the oven.
Loaded Avocado Ingredients
- 2 large ripe avocados
- 4 medium eggs
- Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
- ½ c. Cheddar Jack Cheese, shredded
- 3 strips sugar-free bacon, cooked crispy and crumbled
- Optional garnish: chives or green onions (green parts only), sliced thin
How to Make Loaded Avocados
Preheat oven to 350° F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pits. Use a spoon to carefully remove some of the avocado flesh around the pit to create more space for the egg. Reserve removed flesh for another use (or smash, season with salt and pepper to taste, and top each baked avocado half with a spoonful before serving).
Crack one egg into a small bowl and then carefully transfer the egg into one of the prepared avocado halves. Place the filled avocado onto the prepared baking sheet and repeat this process with the remaining avocado halves and eggs. Season each with salt and black pepper, to taste.
Place filled avocado halves in pre-heated oven to bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked according to your preference.
Remove from oven and top each avocado half with shredded Cheddar Jack cheese and crispy bacon pieces. Garnish with chives or sliced green onions, if desired, and serve immediately.
