  7. Make 2 or 3 indents in mixture with a spoon, and crack an egg into each.
  8. Bake until eggs are just set about 12-15 minutes.
  9. Serve hot with pita or crusty bread.

Notes

Alternatively, the eggs can also be cooked on stovetop instead of baking. Add additional ½ cup water to the chickpeas, crack the eggs and cook until eggs are done.
Try a variation of this with chard or kale.
Use other legumes such as white beans, kidney beans, etc.
