  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 3 minutes.
  7. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and carefully place a yolk in the center of each well.
  8. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the yolks are cooked to your preference.
  9. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve with extra sliced green onions sprinkled on top.
