Return to the oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks reach your preferred doneness.8. Garnish and serve

Notes
Use block feta for the best creamy texture when baked.
Check the eggs after 8 minutes if you prefer runny yolks.
You can add cooked chicken sausage, chickpeas, or diced zucchini for extra protein or vegetables.
