HOW TO MAKE FLUFFIEST SCRAMBLED EGGS ON A PAN

Step 1: In a large bowl, crack all six eggs and pour in the heavy cream. Using an electric mixer, whisk the cream and eggs together until frothy and set aside.

Step 2: In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low-medium heat. Once it’s melted, pour the scrambled egg mixture into the pan and use a spatula to move the eggs around while they cook to your desired level.

Step 3: Remove from the heat and sprinkle on shredded cheese, cover with a lid and allow the cheese to melt.

Step 4: Sprinkle on fresh parsley and serve with your favorite breakfast foods!

STORAGE AND REHEATING NOTES:

While it is best to finish up all of those fluffiest scrambled eggs right after you’ve made them, you can still store the leftovers for later. Simply transfer them to an airtight container and refrigerate for a day or two.

You can then reheat them in a non stick pan or skillet over low heat, or in the microwave.

HELPFUL TIPS & SUBSTITUTIONS:

What Can I Use Instead of Butter?

Olive oil, ghee (clarified butter) and avocado oil are some of the best replacements for butter in this recipe.

What Can I Use Instead of Heavy Cream?

Heavy cream, when whisked together with the eggs, is what makes them creamy and fluffy. Whole milk is the next best alternative. If you don’t have either of those, just some water should do the trick too.

Which Cheese Should I Use to Make the Fluffiest Scrambled Eggs?

Cheddar cheese is the best choice, since it has a nice sharp and cheesy flavor. If you don’t have cheddar cheese, you could use Provolone, Monterey Jack, Gruyere, Gouda or even some Mozzarella.
