Description
Creamy, savory Baked Feta Eggs made with cherry tomatoes, onion, and herbs. A Mediterranean-inspired, one-pan breakfast or brunch dish that's quick, flavorful, and perfect for impressing guests or enjoying a quiet morning.
Ingredients
4 large eggs
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
1 tbsp olive oil
½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
1 tbsp fresh parsley or basil, chopped
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a small ovenproof skillet or baking dish with olive oil.
- Spread the crumbled feta evenly across the bottom of the dish.
- Layer in the cherry tomatoes, sliced onion, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes (if using).
- Carefully crack the eggs over the mixture, spacing them out evenly.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain slightly runny.
- Garnish with fresh herbs and serve warm with crusty bread or pita, if desired.
Notes
Swap in goat cheese or a mix of mozzarella and parmesan for a different flavor profile.
Add greens like spinach or kale for extra nutrients.
Include cooked sausage or chorizo for a heartier version.
Prep the vegetables and cheese the night before for quicker morning assembly.
Leftovers can be stored for up to 2 days and reheated gently to avoid overcooking the yolks.
