Description
Baked Feta Eggs are a delightful twist on your morning routine. This cozy breakfast combines creamy feta, ripe tomatoes, and fresh spinach baked together with eggs for a colorful, flavorful brunch dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cherry or grape tomatoes
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1/2 small red onion, diced
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 8 ounces feta cheese
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 cup chopped baby spinach
- 4 large eggs
- Optional: chopped fresh basil or chives for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- For individual servings: divide tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, garlic, and feta between 4 oven-safe dishes. Drizzle each with 1 tbsp olive oil. For one large dish: combine all veggies, place feta in center, and drizzle with olive oil.
- In a small bowl, mix oregano, salt, thyme, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Sprinkle evenly over the feta and vegetables.
- Bake for 25 minutes until tomatoes burst and feta softens.
- Stir to blend flavors, then mix in chopped spinach.
- Create a small well in the center (or four wells) and crack an egg into each.
- Return to oven and bake 10 minutes or until eggs are set to your liking.
- Top with fresh basil or chives and serve warm with crusty bread, toast, or pita.
Notes
Use good-quality feta for the creamiest texture. Adjust veggies as desired — zucchini, mushrooms, or artichokes also work great. Add red pepper flakes or jalapeño for spice, or cooked grains for a heartier dish.
