Scrambled eggs and toast make a simple, tasty breakfast that’s quick to prepare. Fluffy eggs with toasted bread are perfect for mornings when you want something warm and filling.
I like to add a little cheese or herbs sometimes—makes it extra special. Honestly, I could eat this every day and never get bored!
For a nice touch, I spread a bit of butter on my toast and serve the eggs right on top. Easy, good, and always satisfying!
Ingredients & Substitutions
Eggs:
Fresh eggs give the best texture and flavor. I recommend using large eggs; if you want extra creamy eggs, adding a splash of milk or cream helps. If eggs aren’t available, try liquid egg substitutes, but fresh eggs are best for fluffiness.
Butter:
Butter adds richness and helps prevent sticking. I like using unsalted butter for control over salt, but salted works fine. For a lighter option, olive oil can be used, but skip the butter for a milder flavor.
Toasted Bread:
Sourdough or whole wheat are tasty choices, but any bread works. I prefer lightly toasted bread for a crispy edge, and to keep it from getting soggy, serve the eggs right away. You can use gluten-free bread if needed.
How do I scramble eggs so they stay soft and fluffy?
Start with low heat to gently cook the eggs, avoiding over-stirring. For creamy texture, stir frequently but gently, and remove from heat just before they’re fully set—they’ll finish cooking on residual heat.
- Use a non-stick pan to prevent sticking and easy stirring.
- Stir constantly with a rubber spatula for even cooking and fluffy eggs.
- Remove from heat slightly before they look done—they’ll finish cooking without drying out.
