Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice a small portion from the root end of each onion to create a flat base. Slice off the top of the onions and carefully remove the outer skin layers, keeping the remaining layers intact.

  2. Use a spoon to gently scoop out a portion of the inner layers of the onions, creating a small hollow that can hold the egg. Leave enough space for the egg without breaking through the onion layers.

  3. Carefully crack an egg into each prepared onion. Season each egg with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  4. Place the filled onions in a baking dish or on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, depending on desired egg doneness (shorter for runny yolk, longer for firm yolk).

  5. Remove the baked onions from the oven. Garnish with fresh herbs such as chopped chives or parsley if desired. Serve hot.
