Instructions

0 / 6 steps
  1. 1

    Crack eggs into a bowl, add milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk until yolks and whites are fully combined.

  2. 2

    Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until melted and slightly bubbly.

  3. 3

    Pour egg mixture into the skillet. Let sit for about 30 seconds without stirring until the edges begin to set.

  4. 4

    Gently push the cooked edges towards the center with a spatula, allowing uncooked egg to flow underneath.

  5. 5

    Continue to fold and stir occasionally until the eggs are cooked to your desired consistency (soft, fluffy, or firm).

  6. 6

    Remove from heat immediately to prevent overcooking. Serve hot, optionally with buttered toast.
