If you're looking to perfect the art of making scrambled eggs, this simple yet delicious recipe is all you need. Using just a handful of ingredients, you can create fluffy, creamy scrambled eggs that are sure to impress anyone at the breakfast table.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Crack the 4 eggs into a bowl. Use a fork or whisk to beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
- Measure out 1/4 cup (54g) of butter.
- Have your 4 slices of white bread ready for toasting.
- Place a medium-sized non-stick skillet over low to medium-low heat. Allow it to warm up for a minute or so.
- Add the 1/4 cup (54g) of butter to the skillet. Let it melt slowly, ensuring it doesn’t brown. Swirl the pan or use a spatula to spread the butter evenly across the surface.
- Once the butter is fully melted and lightly bubbling, pour the beaten eggs into the skillet.
- Allow the eggs to sit for a few moments without stirring, letting them begin to set slightly around the edges.
- Gently stir the eggs with a spatula, pushing and folding the eggs from the edges toward the center. Do this gently but continuously to ensure the eggs cook evenly and remain creamy.
- Keep the heat low to avoid overcooking.
- While the eggs are cooking, toast your slices of white bread. You can use a toaster or an oven set to a medium toasting setting. Toast until golden brown and crisp.
- When the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny (this should take about 5-7 minutes depending on your heat level), remove the skillet from the heat. The residual heat will finish cooking the eggs, leaving them soft and creamy.
- Place a portion of scrambled eggs onto each slice of toasted bread. You can serve this open-faced or as a sandwich.
- Optionally, season with salt and pepper to taste. Add any desired extras like cheese, herbs, or hot sauce.
- Serve immediately while the eggs are hot and the toast is crisp. Enjoy your delicious, creamy scrambled eggs!
Tips:
- Whisk the eggs thoroughly before cooking to ensure a uniform texture.
- Cook on medium-low heat to prevent the eggs from becoming rubbery.
- Add a splash of milk or cream to the eggs for extra creaminess.
- Stir continuously but gently to create soft curds.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste just before the eggs are fully cooked.
- Toast the bread slices for a crunchy complement to the creamy eggs.
With this straightforward method, you'll be well on your way to serving the best scrambled eggs. Whether you're preparing a quick breakfast for yourself or hosting a brunch for friends, these scrambled eggs are sure to be a hit. Enjoy them on their own or alongside your favorite breakfast sides.
