Getting Started
- Choose firm but ripe avocados. Overripe avocados will become mushy; underripe ones will not soften properly when baked.
- Bake avocados at 200°C (400°F) for 10-15 minutes. The exact time depends on the avocado's ripeness and desired warmth, but avoid overbaking to prevent a bitter taste.
- To prevent browning, sprinkle a little lemon or lime juice over the avocado flesh before baking, especially if not fully covered by fillings.
- For even cooking and stability, trim a thin slice from the rounded bottom of each avocado half so it sits flat in your baking dish.
