        You do not cook the filling.The eggs are hard boiled .You mash avocado and yolks together with a little lemon

        Serve shortly because avocado changes color.

      Instead of the oven try steaming the eggs, works great and the shells come off without tearing the eggs apart

      I tried this according to the directions and it didn’t work, the yolks were way undercooked. Bummer.

        Edit: After a few minutes of debating what to do with my eggs, I decided to open them all they way and discovered what I saw wasn’t undercooked yolk it was a brown spot where the egg charred on the inside with a layer of film attached and the eggs were perfect!! As a kitchen newbie, I did this recipe a disservice and I needed to come back and give it the props it deserves!

      I tried this, and it worked out great! The only thing is most of my eggs had brown (burnt?) marks on them. Marks were small enough to cut off. Eggs were cooked perfectly!

      Disappointed, didn’t work, the eggs were not cooked all the way through.

        325 would be F not C, in case that helps.

      How cool! I love this idea. I can’t believe I’ve been making hard boiled eggs a different way for years. Thank you for linking at the In and Out of the Kitchen Link Party. Hope to see you again next week.

      I saw this on Pinterest too, but wrote it off as silly. Then when I saw your link on the Inspire Us Thursday party, it occurred to me that if I’ve got the oven on already to make something else, why not toss in a few eggs for egg salad (one of my very favorite things!). Will try it out next time I’m cooking!

      Interesting idea & no waiting for the water to boil! I’ve never had any trouble boiling the eggs but I do have trouble with the shells sticking now and then (even when I add baking soda, even when I ice afterward, even after ALL the tricks!). Does this method help any with that?

        I didn’t have trouble at all with the shells coming off easily 🙂
