Instructions:
- Gather all your ingredients and kitchen tools, including a non-stick skillet, a whisk or fork, a mixing bowl, and a spatula.
- Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl.
- Add the 1/2 cup (120g) of canned pumpkin purée into the bowl with the eggs.
- Whisk the eggs and pumpkin together until the mixture is well combined and has a consistent texture.
- Sprinkle the 1/4 tsp (1g) of cinnamon into the egg and pumpkin mixture.
- Whisk again to ensure the cinnamon is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Place a non-stick skillet on medium heat and add 1 tbsp (14g) of olive oil.
- Allow the oil to heat up but not to the point where it starts to smoke.
- Pour the egg mixture into the heated skillet.
- Let it sit undisturbed for a few seconds until it starts to set on the bottom.
- Using a spatula, gently stir and scramble the mixture, pushing it from the edges towards the center. Cook the eggs to your desired consistency, whether you like them soft and creamy or fully cooked.
- Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, remove the skillet from the heat.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, if desired.
- Serve the pumpkin spice scrambled eggs immediately, perhaps with a side of toast or fresh fruit.
Tips:
- Make sure to whisk the eggs thoroughly before cooking to achieve a fluffy texture.
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the eggs from sticking and to make the cleanup process easier.
- You can enhance the flavor by sprinkling a pinch of nutmeg or adding a splash of vanilla extract.
- For a creamier texture, consider adding a tablespoon of milk or dairy-free alternative when whisking the eggs.
- Serve with a side of toast or fresh fruit for a complete breakfast.
