Scrambled eggs and toast make a simple, tasty breakfast. Creamy eggs cooked just right and crispy toast are a classic combo that’s quick to make any morning.
I like to add a little cheese or herbs to my eggs, just for fun. Sometimes I toast extra bread for snacks later—it’s good even cold!
If you want, sprinkle some salt and pepper on your eggs, or serve with fresh fruit. Easy, filling, and always a good start to the day!
Ingredients & Substitutions
Eggs: I recommend using fresh eggs for the best texture and flavor. If you prefer, egg whites work well too, or try a mixture of whole eggs and whites for a lighter result.
Bread: Toast adds crunch and helps soak up the eggs. Whole wheat or white bread both work; for a healthier touch, try multigrain or gluten-free options.
Butter: A bit of butter in the eggs makes them creamy and rich. You can substitute with margarine or a splash of olive oil if you want a different flavor or need a dairy-free version.
Salt & Pepper: Simple seasonings enhance flavor. Feel free to add herbs like chives or paprika for extra flavor — they’re easy substitutions to customize your breakfast.
How do I scramble eggs without overcooking or dry texture?
Start with low heat for soft, creamy eggs. Continuously stir with a spatula, scraping the bottom, so they cook evenly. Remove from heat when slightly runny—they’ll set as they cool. Patience is key here for fluffy results.
- Use low to medium heat to prevent burning or drying out.
- Stir constantly, scraping the bottom for even cooking.
- Remove from heat just before they look fully set—residual heat finishes the job.
