Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 to 4 eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Slices of bread
Supporting Ingredients:
- ½ tablespoon milk per egg
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Seasonings:
- Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Crack 2-4 eggs into a bowl and whisk them with ½ Tbsp milk per egg, ¼ tsp salt, and a pinch of black pepper until ingredients are just blended.
- Melt 1 Tbsp butter in a skillet over medium-low heat at 325°F, ensuring even coating across the surface.
- Pour the egg mixture into the heated skillet and wait 5 seconds before gently pushing the cooked edges toward the center with a spatula.
- After 30 seconds, softly fold the eggs continuously, creating soft, custardy curds without any raw egg visible.
- Remove the skillet from heat when eggs are almost at your preferred consistency, as they will continue cooking for another 15-20 seconds.
- Transfer the creamy scrambled eggs directly onto crispy toasted bread slices, seasoning with an extra sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste.
Notes
- Whisking eggs just until combined keeps them tender and prevents tough, rubbery texture.
- Use a nonstick skillet or well-seasoned cast iron pan to prevent sticking and ensure easy egg release.
- Low, gentle heat is crucial for creating soft, creamy scrambled eggs with delicate curds.
- For a dairy-free version, swap milk with unsweetened almond or oat milk, and use olive oil instead of butter.
