Oven-Baked Olive Oil & Egg Delight

Ingredients

- 4 large eggs
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Water

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Prepare the Baking Dish:
Lightly coat an oven-safe dish with nonstick cooking spray.

3. Add Olive Oil and Water:
Pour 1 tablespoon of olive oil evenly into the dish. Add just enough water to come up to a quarter-inch depth in the dish, forming a thin layer of olive oil and water.

4. Crack the Eggs:
Carefully crack the eggs, one by one, into the dish, ensuring they're spaced apart without breaking the yolks.

5. Season and Customize (Optional):
Season the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper, or add any desired herbs or spices such as thyme or basil for extra flavor.

6. Baking:
Place the dish in the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 10-12 minutes or until the egg whites are set, and the yolks reach your desired level of doneness. If you prefer firmer yolks, bake for an additional 2-3 minutes.

7. Finish:
Carefully remove the dish from the oven using oven mitts. Let it cool for a minute before serving.

8. Serve Warm:
Serve your oven-baked olive oil and egg delight warm, perhaps accompanied by a side salad or crusty bread for a satisfying lunch.
