Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Place 3 slices bacon on a baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes until crispy but not burnt, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  2. Step 2: Dice 1 medium avocado into 1/4-inch cubes and set aside. Whisk 4 large eggs with 1/4 tsp sea salt, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, and 1 tbsp finely chopped chives until fully combined and slightly frothy.
  3. Step 3: Heat 1 tsp avocado oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the diced avocado and cook for 2 minutes until slightly softened but still holding shape, then pour in the egg mixture.
  4. Step 4: Scatter 3 slices of cooked bacon over the top, then transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake for 15-18 minutes until the edges are golden and the center is set with no visible liquid (a gentle shake should not wobble the frittata).
