Instructions
Creating Baked Feta Eggs is an enjoyable process. Follow these steps to achieve the perfect dish:
1. Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Baking Dish: Drizzle olive oil in a small oven-safe baking dish or skillet.
3. Add Feta and Tomatoes: Place the crumbled feta cheese and halved cherry tomatoes in the dish. Drizzle with additional olive oil, then sprinkle with oregano and red pepper flakes.
4. Bake Feta: Put the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until the cheese begins to soften and the tomatoes start to burst.
5. Crack Eggs: Remove the dish from the oven carefully. Cracking each egg over the feta and tomatoes, ensuring you’re even.
6. Season: Sprinkle salt and pepper over the eggs to taste.
7. Bake Again: Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the eggs are set to your liking (runny yolks take about 8-10 minutes).
8. Garnish: Once cooked, remove from the oven and garnish with fresh herbs.
9. Serve: Serve immediately with slices of crusty bread for dipping.
