🍳 What Is Scrambled Eggs on Toast?
Scrambled eggs on toast is a simple dish where lightly cooked eggs are served on top of toasted bread. It’s beloved for its creamy texture, protein content, and ease of preparation.
🛠 Basic Ingredients
- Eggs – usually 2–3 per person
- Bread – white, whole wheat, sourdough, or your favorite type
- Butter or oil – for cooking eggs and/or toasting bread
- Milk or cream (optional) – makes eggs creamier
- Salt and pepper – to taste
Optional toppings/add-ins: cheese, herbs (chives, parsley), tomatoes, avocado, smoked salmon, or bacon.
🍳 Cooking Steps
Step 1: Prepare Toast
- Toast the bread slices to your preference (lightly golden or well-browned).
- Butter the toast if desired.
Step 2: Make Scrambled Eggs
- Crack eggs into a bowl and whisk with a splash of milk/cream, salt, and pepper.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and melt butter or oil.
- Pour eggs into the pan and stir gently with a spatula.
- Cook slowly, stirring frequently, until the eggs are soft, creamy, and slightly set (they’ll continue cooking off the heat).
Step 3: Assemble
- Spoon the scrambled eggs onto the toasted bread.
- Add optional toppings for extra flavor and texture.
