Fluffy Scrambled Eggs

Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk or heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
  • Fresh chives or herbs (optional)
  • Grated cheese (optional)

Recommended Tools

  • Non-Stick Frying Pan

    Perfect size for scrambled eggs with non-stick coating

  • Silicone Spatula Set

    Ideal for gently folding eggs without scratching cookware

  • Glass Mixing Bowls

    For beating eggs and other prep work

Instructions

  1. 1
    Crack eggs into a bowl and add milk or cream.
  2. 2
    Whisk gently until just combined - don't overwhisk.
  3. 3
    Melt butter in a non-stick pan over medium-low heat.
  4. 4
    Pour in egg mixture and let sit undisturbed for about 20 seconds.
  5. 5
    Using a silicone spatula, gently fold the eggs from the edges toward the center.
  6. 6
    Continue folding the eggs every few seconds, forming soft curds.
  7. 7
    Remove from heat when eggs are still slightly wet - they'll continue cooking from residual heat.
  8. 8
    Season with salt and pepper and add optional herbs or cheese.
  9. 9
    Serve immediately on warm toast or with breakfast sides.

Pro Tip

The key to fluffy scrambled eggs is low heat and gentle, infrequent stirring. Never use high heat as it makes eggs tough and dry.
