SCRAMBLED EGGS IN A CUP



Scrambled Eggs in a Cup image

My grandmother passed down this recipe after I had my son. This was one of his very first foods. Its easy to make, easy to clean up and easy to feed. Even the pickiest of toddlers will devour this simple easily digestible meal. After 10 years my son still asks for his eggs to be made this way and can even make them himself. It is still his favorite way to eat his eggs :) Also makes a quick on the go breakfast you can eat in your car. For adults add salt and pepper with your favorite cheese, spices or ketchup.

SCRAMBLED EGGS

Five ingredients and 15 minutes is all you need to make these delicious scrambled eggs - perfect for a dinner.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 eggs
1/3 cup water, milk or half-and-half
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon butter or margarine

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, beat the eggs, water, salt and pepper with a fork or wire whisk until well mixed.
  • In a 10-inch skillet, heat the butter over medium heat just until it begins to sizzle and look hot.
  • Pour egg mixture into skillet. The egg mixture will become firm at the bottom and side very quickly. When this happens, gently lift the cooked portions around the edge with a turner so that the thin, uncooked portion can flow to the bottom. Avoid constant stirring because the eggs will become dry and rubbery rather than light and fluffy.
  • Cook 3 to 4 minutes or until eggs are thickened throughout but still moist and creamy. Serve immediately.
