These soft scrambled eggs are so easy and SO dreamy! Four quick and easy secrets to the best scrambled eggs of your life. Here’s the thing: I might be a little dramatic. I might use super-describers like magic and miracle and unbelievable to describe my favorite recipes. Regularly. This is all true. But when I say life-changing soft scrambled eggs? I literally mean life-changing. Prefer To Watch Instead Of Read? These eggs changed my life because – please withhold judgment – I used to NOT EAT SCRAMBLED EGGS. I know. I am not a picky eater, but scrambled eggs were one of a total of, like, three ingredients on my food black list. I’ve always been okay with the other varieties of eggs, including: Poached — Avocado Toast , FTW! Fried Hard Boiled — if used in Avocado Egg Salad But scrambled eggs were always gag city for me until I was introduced to the soft scramble and, obviously, MY LIFE CHANGED FOREVS. I now default to scrambled eggs on what-to-make-for-dinner nights. I now make easy meals with an added bonus of super nutritious protein within 90 seconds. I now feel like a legit home cook. Credit Where Credit Is Due I owe this major life transition into scrambled egg adulthood to a few peeps.

That’s right, I started my journey way back here . Bon Appetit , who not only wrote a nice post about soft scrambled eggs, but also shared a quick little video of it on their Instagram and made me realize that maybe I *could* like scrambled eggs after all. How To Master Soft Scrambled Eggs: The pan. This is key. Please use a high-quality nonstick. It’s the easiest. My preferred brand of nonstick is Swiss Diamond (affiliate link – that’s what we used in the video) , but at home, Bjork and I have a cheaper tiny two-egg sized nonstick probably from Target that is just our designated egg pan. The fat. I know, health and everything, but you really need a little bit of fat in that pan to help the eggs move around. (Also – yum.) I highly recommend butter. We’re not talking about a lot of butter here – just enough to coat the pan and help the eggs hold together in soft, fluffy folds instead of sticking to the pan. The spatula. A rubber or ideally silicone spatula is a must. The flexibility of the spatula allows you to hug the contours of the pan and get a really clean swipe/fold each time you push the eggs around. The eggs. Good eggs are worth it. I normally shop at mainstream grocery stores, but my favorite is when I have a chance to pick up eggs from Whole Foods because they source them from local farmers and the eggs are vibrant and beautiful. Same idea if you have access to a farmers market, a homestead-y friend, a chicken… egg quality matters. The heat level. We want MEDIUM LOW heat going on for these eggs. Too hot and they’re going to get dried out, or, I hate to even say it, browned. Keep that heat high enough to get ā€˜em cookin’, but low enough to keep the creaminess. Like so. šŸ‘‡šŸ¼ What To Make with Scrambled Eggs What does a person do with a soft scramble? Allow me. served solo served on toast served in bowls served in epic breakfast sandwiches loaded with bacon and guacamole served in mind-blowing breakfast crunchwraps (yes) tucked inside some breakfast enchiladas (double yes) Today is your day. Prepare for the soft scramble to change your liiife. Frequently Asked Questions About These Eggs Could I use oil instead of butter? I highly recommend butter, but a neutral-tasting oil could work. Something like canola oil is great! Could I add cheese on top of the eggs? Well, yes, that would be amazing! Do I need a special pan to make these? You’ll definitely want to use a high-quality non-stick pan for these scrambled eggs. Very key! Could I add milk to these? Yes! Though this could potentially make them even looser. I’d recommend just a splash! Print Description These soft scrambled eggs are so easy and SO dreamy! Four quick and easy secrets to the best scrambled eggs of your life. 4 eggs 1/2 tablespoon butter salt to taste Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark Melt the butter in a medium-sized non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. We want the butter to pretty much coat the whole pan. Whisk the eggs. When the butter is just barely bubbling, add the eggs to the pan directly in the center so that the butter gets pushed out to the sides. ZERO STICKAGE. This is good. Watch for the edges to just barely start to set, and then gently swipe a spatula around the edges of the pan to create large soft curds. Don’t flip the curds over. Continue this process, pausing in between to allow time for the eggs to cook but working quickly enough so as not to overcook the eggs, just gently pushing/folding the liquid eggs to form curds. The entire process should take 2-3 minutes or less. When the eggs are barely set and you have some big folds of heavenly soft scrambled eggs laying in the pan, remove from heat. Serve on a breakfast sandwich or with your bowls or just by themselves. SO. AMAZINGLY. GOOD. Notes When in doubt, go lower with the heat. The eggs will go from perfect to overcooked in a matter of seconds so watch it closely! More pushing around in the pan = more tiny pieces of eggs. I like the bigger soft-cooked pieces so I try to reduce my amount of spatula-pushing. WATCH THE VIDEO. It helps to show the process and what the eggs should look like.

I never even knew this existed until I moved to England where this is the de-facto standard. A few extra tips that I’ve picked up along the way for creamy egg goodness. In Britain they ALWAYS make their scrambled eggs in a small pot. Seriously! And ALWAYS on a super low heat. The pots stops the eggs from cooking too quickly. I still use a rubber spatula to keep things moving, but my friends swear by a whisk. This helps the eggs stay separated and not overcook in any given area. It is the final step which is the game changer. Stir in a small splash of cream as soon as you take the eggs off of the stove to stop the eggs from cooking further. This then adds an extra layer of velvety goodness.

No thanks. [09/07/19 @ 7:48 pm](https://pinchofyum.com/soft-scrambled-eggs#comment-751801) [Reply](https://pinchofyum.com/soft-scrambled-eggs#comment-751801) 1. ![Pinch of Yum Logo](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/72fb67990a00681775de32760a67377521ef0672d88d3cc43964747002e19941?s=75&d=https%3A%2F%2Fpinchofyum.com%2Fcontent%2Fassets%2Fimages%2Fpoy-avatar-grey-75x75.jpg&r=g) Heather wiese It’s a lot better than highly unstable unsaturated fats (butter or ghee is still a better bet though). Unsaturated fats oxidize very quickly with even the smallest amount of heat, or light or air, and release toxic chemicals linked to disease. You do not want that in your body. Not to mention the high omega 6 to omega 3 ratios in all seed oils assosiated with inflammation. I only cook with saturated fat, and only eat unsaturated fats from whole foods. Look into the history of vegetable seed oils and how they came into our food system [04/30/20 @ 4:11 pm](https://pinchofyum.com/soft-scrambled-eggs#comment-799562) [Reply](https://pinchofyum.com/soft-scrambled-eggs#comment-799562) 2. ![Pinch of Yum Logo](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/8b6c928cc1ab57b9a83f8c96948a07735e64b3241814961ce2183aa881446822?s=75&d=https%3A%2F%2Fpinchofyum.com%2Fcontent%2Fassets%2Fimages%2Fpoy-avatar-grey-75x75.jpg&r=g) healthy yummy cook You need to educate yourself beyond the trends. Coconut oil is extremely healthy and has an unmatched silky texture. Millions of Asians eat it every day, all of their very long life, and never need a cardiologist. Give it a try. (Real oil, not hydrogenated over-processed nonsense.) Use it externally for amazing skin and hair. Then imagine what it an do for your internal epithelial tissues.

I’ve always used water in my soft scrambled eggs (lactose free eggs) and the curds are soft and wonderful—made an egg eater out of my grandson.

These soft scrambled eggs are so easy and SO dreamy! Four quick and easy secrets to the best scrambled eggs of your life. Here’s the thing: I might be a little dramatic. I might use super-describers like magic and miracle and unbelievable to describe my favorite recipes. Regularly. This is all true. But when I say life-changing soft scrambled eggs? I literally mean life-changing. *** ## Prefer To Watch Instead Of Read? *** These eggs changed my life because – please withhold judgment – I used to NOT EAT SCRAMBLED EGGS. I know. I am not a picky eater, but scrambled eggs were one of a total of, like, three ingredients on my food black list. I’ve always been okay with the other varieties of eggs, including: - Poached — [Avocado Toast](https://pinchofyum.com/simple-poached-egg-avocado-toast), FTW\! - Fried - Hard Boiled — if used in [Avocado Egg Salad](https://pinchofyum.com/the-best-avocado-egg-salad) But scrambled eggs were always gag city for me until I was introduced to the soft scramble and, obviously, MY LIFE CHANGED FOREVS. I now default to scrambled eggs on what-to-make-for-dinner nights. I now make easy meals with an added bonus of super nutritious protein within 90 seconds. I now feel like a legit home cook. ![Eggs in an egg carton.](https://pinchofyum.com/tachyon/Soft-Scrambled-Eggs-5.jpg) ## Credit Where Credit Is Due I owe this major life transition into scrambled egg adulthood to a few peeps. 1. Shauna Niequist who made me weak in the knees with her description of soft scrambled eggs with goat cheese in the book **[Bread & Wine](http://amzn.to/2ftFwBB)** *(\<- affiliate link)*. That’s right, I started my journey **[way back here](https://pinchofyum.com/goat-cheese-scrambled-eggs-pesto-veggies)**. 2. **[Bon Appetit](https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/bas-best-soft-scrambled-eggs)**, who not only wrote a nice post about soft scrambled eggs, but also shared a quick little video of it on their Instagram and made me realize that maybe I \*could\* like scrambled eggs after all. ![Soft scrambled eggs in a pan with a spatula. ](https://pinchofyum.com/tachyon/Soft-Scrambled-Eggs-1.jpg) ## How To Master Soft Scrambled Eggs: 1. **The pan.** This is key. Please use a high-quality nonstick. It’s the easiest. My preferred brand of nonstick is [Swiss Diamond](https://amzn.to/32Yh8fJ) *(affiliate link – that’s what we used in the video)*, but at home, Bjork and I have a cheaper tiny two-egg sized nonstick probably from Target that is just our designated egg pan. 2. **The fat.** I know, health and everything, but you really need a little bit of fat in that pan to help the eggs move around. (Also – yum.) I highly recommend butter. We’re not talking about a lot of butter here – just enough to coat the pan and help the eggs hold together in soft, fluffy folds instead of sticking to the pan. 3. **The spatula.** A rubber or ideally silicone spatula is a must. The flexibility of the spatula allows you to hug the contours of the pan and get a really clean swipe/fold each time you push the eggs around. 4. **The eggs.** Good eggs are worth it. I normally shop at mainstream grocery stores, but my favorite is when I have a chance to pick up eggs from Whole Foods because they source them from local farmers and the eggs are vibrant and beautiful. Same idea if you have access to a farmers market, a homestead-y friend, a chicken… egg quality matters. 5. **The heat level.** We want MEDIUM LOW heat going on for these eggs. Too hot and they’re going to get dried out, or, I hate to even say it, browned. Keep that heat high enough to get ā€˜em cookin’, but low enough to keep the creaminess. Like so. šŸ‘‡šŸ¼ ![Two bowls compared cooked scrambled eggs. ](https://pinchofyum.com/tachyon/ScrambledEggs-01.jpg) ## What To Make with Scrambled Eggs What does a person do with a soft scramble?

Something like canola oil is great\! **Could I add cheese on top of the eggs?** Well, yes, that would be amazing\! **Do I need a special pan to make these?** You’ll definitely want to use a high-quality non-stick pan for these scrambled eggs. Very key\! **Could I add milk to these?** Yes! Though this could potentially make them even looser. I’d recommend just a splash\!

Four quick and easy secrets to the best scrambled eggs of your life. *** - 4 **eggs** - 1/2 tablespoon **butter** - **salt** to taste Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark *** 1. Melt the butter in a medium-sized non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. We want the butter to pretty much coat the whole pan. 2. Whisk the eggs. When the butter is just barely bubbling, add the eggs to the pan directly in the center so that the butter gets pushed out to the sides. ZERO STICKAGE. This is good. 3. Watch for the edges to just barely start to set, and then gently swipe a spatula around the edges of the pan to create large soft curds. Don’t flip the curds over. Continue this process, pausing in between to allow time for the eggs to cook but working quickly enough so as not to overcook the eggs, just gently pushing/folding the liquid eggs to form curds. The entire process should take 2-3 minutes or less. 4. When the eggs are barely set and you have some big folds of heavenly soft scrambled eggs laying in the pan, remove from heat. Serve on a breakfast sandwich or with your bowls or just by themselves. SO. AMAZINGLY. GOOD. ### Notes When in doubt, go lower with the heat. The eggs will go from perfect to overcooked in a matter of seconds so watch it closely\! More pushing around in the pan = more tiny pieces of eggs. I like the bigger soft-cooked pieces so I try to reduce my amount of spatula-pushing. WATCH THE VIDEO. It helps to show the process and what the eggs should look like. - Prep Time: 2 mins - Cook Time: 3 mins - Category: Breakfast - Method: Stovetop - Cuisine: American Keywords: scrambled eggs, soft scrambled eggs, how to make scrambled eggs, how to serve scrambled eggs ## Let’s Get Cooking More Egg Recipes\! - [Meal Prep Breakfast Sandwiches](https://pinchofyum.com/15-minute-meal-prep-breakfast-sandwiches) - [The Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich](https://pinchofyum.com/breakfast-sandwich) - [Biscuits and Gravy Egg Bake](https://pinchofyum.com/biscuits-and-gravy-egg-bake) - [Egg and Croissant Brunch Bake](https://pinchofyum.com/egg-and-croissant-brunch-bake) *** ## One More Thing\!
