Baked Feta Eggs is a fun recipe that I created inspired by Baked Feta Pasta. It’s a different way to make scrambled eggs in the oven with feta cheese. I loved the idea of creamy melty feta in the middle of a baking dish with something around it getting cooked. It’s easy, hands-off and perfect for meal prepping or feeding a crowd.

Frequently Asked Questions
No, I found that an 8-ounce block of feta cheese was not that salty since this is meant to serve 6 to 8 people. In fact, I still felt like the eggs need a little bit of salt on top of them.
I haven’t tried it, but yes, you can definitely do that. I think it will work very well.
The eggs around the edges will cook first, but the ones around the middle may still be soft and jammy. That’s okay because as soon as you mix everything together, anything uncooked will immediately cook because of the residual heat in the pan. If you scramble it all together and still feel like some parts are undercooked, pop it in the oven for another 1-2 minutes, and it should be all set.

Baked Feta Eggs
Ingredients
- Avocado oil spray
- 1 (8-ounce) block feta cheese
- 12 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Fresh mint leaves for serving
- Pita bread for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease an 8×11 baking dish.
- Place the feta block in the middle of the prepared baking dish. Crack 12 eggs around it, then drizzle olive oil over the feta and eggs. Season the eggs with salt and both the eggs and feta with black pepper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, until the feta cheese melts and the egg whites around the edges cook.
- Use a fork to scramble the eggs and feta together. Don’t worry if some of the whites still look wet as they will continue cooking from the heat of the baking dish and surrounding eggs.
- Enjoy the eggs alone or scoop into pita bread with mint leaves to make a sandwich.
