Baked feta cheese dip with eggs is a creamy, savory, Mediterranean-inspired dish featuring soft, golden feta and perfectly baked eggs. Ideal for breakfast, brunch, or a light dinner, it’s served warm with crusty bread or fresh veggies for dipping.

Ingredients

  • 1 block feta cheese (about 7 oz)
  • 2–4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (parsley, dill, or basil)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Crusty bread or pita, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Place the block of feta in the center of a small oven-safe dish.
  3. Add halved cherry tomatoes around the feta if using and drizzle everything with olive oil.
  4. Sprinkle minced garlic, red pepper flakes (if desired), salt, and black pepper over the top.
  5. Bake for 15–20 minutes until the feta is soft and starting to brown slightly.
  6. Remove from the oven and carefully crack the eggs on top of the feta and tomato mixture.
  7. Return to the oven and bake for another 8–10 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are still slightly runny.
  8. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve immediately with warm bread or fresh vegetables.

Notes

  • Use crumbled feta for quicker melting if preferred.
  • Watch eggs closely to avoid overcooking the yolks.
  • Add cooked sausage or bacon for a meaty variation.
  • Best served warm, straight from the oven.
  • Customize with extra veggies like spinach or bell peppers.
