Ingredients
- 4 slices of bread
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 4 slices of bread, 2 large eggs, 2 tablespoons of butter, salt, and pepper. Make sure you have a non-stick skillet or frying pan ready for cooking.
- Place the skillet on the stove over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the bottom of the skillet evenly.
- While the butter is melting, crack the 2 large eggs into a bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste, then whisk the eggs gently until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
- Once the butter has melted and is sizzling, pour the whisked eggs into the skillet. Let them cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set.
- Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, pushing them from the edges toward the center. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the eggs from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, place the 4 slices of bread in the skillet. Toast the bread for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Once the bread is toasted, remove it from the skillet and place it on plates. Top each slice of bread with the scrambled eggs.
- Season the eggs with additional salt and pepper if desired. Serve immediately while hot.
Tips
- Use fresh eggs at room temperature for the fluffiest scramble
- Keep your heat at medium to prevent burning and ensure even cooking
- Whisk eggs thoroughly for a smoother, more consistent texture
- Use a non-stick skillet for easier cooking and cleanup
- Don't overcook your eggs - remove them from heat when they're still slightly moist
- Experiment with adding herbs like chives or parsley for extra flavor
- For a golden toast, use butter instead of oil for richer taste and color
- Serve immediately to enjoy the eggs at their peak temperature and texture
