Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz block feta full fat, Greek
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes
  • 4 cloves garlic smashed
  • 1/4 cup olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 4 eggs large
  • 2 tbsp fresh basil torn
  • salt and black pepper to taste
  • crusty bread for serving

Method
 

  1. **Prep.** Preheat oven to 400F. Place feta block in the center of a small baking dish.
  2. **Surround.** Add cherry tomatoes and smashed garlic around the feta. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper over top.
  3. **Bake.** Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until tomatoes are blistered and feta is soft and creamy.
  4. **Stir.** Smash the feta and tomatoes with a fork to create a creamy sauce.
  5. **Crack.** Use a spoon to make 4 wells in the sauce. Crack an egg into each.
  6. **Finish.** Bake for 6 to 8 more minutes until whites are set and yolks are still runny.
  7. **Serve.** Top with fresh basil. Serve immediately with crusty bread for dunking.

Notes

Eat immediately for the best runny yolk experience. Use a block of feta (not crumbled). It melts differently and holds its shape. Full fat Greek feta gives the creamiest result. Avoid low-fat or pre-crumbled.
