How to Make Fluffy Scrambled Eggs
These traditional scrambled eggs truly are easy to make, as long as you stay on top of them.
This recipe includes two servings, so you can easily double the recipe for a family of four, and so on and so forth. Use a larger pan if needed!
Start by whisking six eggs and two tablespoons of 10% lactose free cream in a bowl. You can also use milk of choice, half and half cream, or whipping cream if that’s what you’ve got on hand. If you don’t have a whisk, use a fork. Do not season the eggs.
Using a non-stick frying pan, you shouldn’t need to grease it. You could however use a cooking spray of your choice–like coconut oil, avocado oil, or butter. Turn the heat to medium.
Pour the eggs into your pan. Let cook for a minute or two. Then, sprinkle on a dash of salt and pepper. As it cooks, start mixing using a spatula, being sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the pan, bringing the eggs to the centre of the pan.
The eggs will cook fast, continue scraping until the eggs are fluffy and cooked through. If cooked for too long, the eggs will dry out. Turn off heat and plate your scrambled eggs.
Can You Add Other Ingredients to Scrambled Eggs?
As long as they are finely chopped and cooked prior to making your scrambled eggs.
