1
Crack the Eggs
In a medium mixing bowl, crack 4 large eggs.
2
Add Milk
Add 2 tablespoons of milk to the eggs in the bowl.
3
Season the Mixture
Sprinkle in 0.5 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper.
4
Whisk Together
Using a whisk or fork, beat the eggs and milk mixture until well combined and slightly frothy.

5
Heat the Pan
Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the bottom of the pan.
6
Add Egg Mixture
Once the butter is melted and bubbling, pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
7
Scramble the Eggs
Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges of the skillet toward the center. Repeat this motion, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges.
8
Add Optional Ingredients
If desired, add optional ingredients like shredded cheddar cheese, chopped fresh herbs, diced tomatoes, or cooked bacon to the eggs once they are mostly set.
9
Finish Cooking
Continue cooking the eggs until they are just set but still slightly creamy, about 1-2 more minutes.

10
Plate the Scrambled Eggs
Remove the skillet from heat and gently slide the scrambled eggs onto a plate.
11
Garnish and Serve
If desired, garnish with additional herbs or cheese before serving. Enjoy your scrambled eggs warm!
