One of most universally adored breakfast staples? Fluffy Scrambled Eggs! This recipe makes the tastiest eggs in no time.

One of the most classic breakfast dishes? Scrambled eggs. Aaw, yeah! My kids request them all the time, Zach and I both love them, they’re a total staple. This is my method for getting the Best Ever Fluffy Scrambled Eggs that come out just right every time. No overcooked, rubbery scrambled eggs on my watch!

Ingredients for Fluffy Scrambled Eggs

You guessed it: I’m keeping it totally simple here.

Eggs
Water
Salt
Butter (or ghee!)

Once you have the method down, you can add ingredients like cheese, extra seasonings, or toppings like salsa or avocado. Make ’em your own! It’s egg-celent! (I had to include at least one egg pun!)

How to Get Perfect Scrambled Eggs

There are a couple tricks to getting those A+ eggs every single time. I like to…

Whisk them well! Make sure the eggs, water, and pinch of salt are totally incorporated together. Do this while your pan heats up.
Use a bit of butter or ghee to grease the pan, pour the eggs in, and use a rubber spatula to push the eggs from the edges of the pan into the center. Do this until they start to scramble.
Just keep scraping, just keep scraping! Have patience and keep pushing the eggs toward the center of the pan.
Just before they’re done to your liking, turn the pan off! They’ll do that last little bit of cooking and be just right by the time you put them on your plate.
