Fluffy Scrambled Eggs
A timeless classic, these fluffy scrambled eggs are a testament to simple ingredients yielding delicious results. Perfect for a quick breakfast or a light meal.
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk or cream (optional)
- 1 teaspoon butter or oil
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, milk (if using), salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy, but not vigorously.
- Melt butter or heat oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Ensure the pan is not too hot to prevent overcooking the eggs.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds until the edges just begin to set.
- Gently push the cooked edges towards the center with a heat-resistant spatula, tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath. Continue this gentle folding and stirring motion.
- Cook for another 1-2 minutes, continually folding and stirring, until the eggs reach your desired consistency—moist and fluffy but not runny. Remove from heat immediately.
- Serve your fluffy scrambled eggs warm and enjoy!
Notes
For extra creaminess, stir in a teaspoon of cream cheese or a splash of heavy cream at the end. Be careful not to overcook; scrambled eggs continue to cook slightly after being removed from heat. Serve immediately with toast, bacon, or a side of avocado.
