Eggs

Hotcakes or Toast

Coffee

Method

Eggs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggs

    Crack the 2 eggs into a bowl. Add salt and pepper. Whisk until well combined.

  2. 2

    Cook the Eggs

    In a non-stick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and cook until the edges start to set. Gently stir with a spatula until fully cooked but slightly runny in the center. Remove from heat.

Hashbrowns

  1. 3

    Prepare the Hashbrowns

    Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add 1 cup of frozen hashbrowns. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. 4

    Cook the Hashbrowns

    Cook the hashbrowns for about 5-7 minutes without stirring, allowing them to develop a crispy layer. Flip and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until both sides are golden brown.

Hotcakes or Toast

  1. 5

    Prepare the Hotcake Batter

    In a bowl, mix together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 2 tablespoons of sugar. In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk and 1 egg.

  2. 6

    Combine and Cook Hotcakes

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each hotcake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown.

  3. 7

    Toast Option

    If you prefer toast instead of hotcakes, simply toast the 2 slices of bread in a toaster until golden brown.

Coffee

  1. 8

    Brew the Coffee

    In a coffee maker, add 0.25 cup of coffee grounds to the filter. Pour 4 cups of water into the reservoir and start the brew cycle.

  2. 9

    Serve the Coffee

    Once brewed, pour the coffee into a mug and enjoy with your breakfast.
