Black pepper
to taste
Salt
to taste
Fresh oregano
2 tablespoons, chopped
Feta cheese

for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Grease two individual-sized baking dishes with olive oil, ensuring they are well-coated to prevent sticking.

  4. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the eggs, allowing its creamy texture to enhance the dish.
  5. Add the chopped oregano, along with salt and black pepper to taste, creating a beautiful blend of flavors.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain slightly runny for that perfect, luscious consistency.
  7. Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
  8. Serve the baked eggs warm, accompanied by crusty bread or toast for dipping into the rich yolks.
