    I made this for breakfast. The richness of the butter and the sweetness of the soft-cooked egg made it delicious.

    It was easy and delicious.

    I used to just eyeball the milk, so my eggs kept turning out more like scrambled eggs, and it was really frustrating... But when I measured everything and followed the recipe, my family raved, saying, "This is like a hotel breakfast!" It makes cooking so much more fun when you can make something turn out just the way you imagined. Thank you so much!

    These are fluffy scrambled eggs. The butter, milk, and salt give them a gentle flavor. I thought they were delicious just as they were, but my husband seems to prefer them with ketchup. They would probably be good tucked into bread, too!

    I had this for breakfast by sandwiching ham and these scrambled eggs in a roll 🙌 They had a light buttery, salty flavor, so they were delicious even without ketchup.

    It turned out fluffy, melty, and delicious 😋 It was a little sweet, which made it even tastier. I’ll definitely make it again!
