Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 pieces Bread slices (preferably sourdough or country loaf)
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Chives (fresh, chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl and whisk together with the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Toast the bread slices until golden and crispy. Allow them to cool slightly, then crush them into bite-sized pieces by hand. Set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Swirl the butter to coat the bottom of the pan.
Pour in the whisked eggs and stir gently with a silicone spatula, scraping the bottom of the pan regularly as they cook. Continue stirring until the eggs are soft and just set, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat immediately.
In another small skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the crushed bread pieces and toast for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become golden and slightly crisp. Remove from heat and set aside.
To plate, divide the scrambled eggs evenly onto two plates. Top each portion with the toasted bread pieces, ensuring they are evenly spread across the eggs for texture.
Sprinkle chopped chives and grated Parmesan cheese over each plate for a finishing touch.
Serve warm and enjoy your Egg Crusher with your favorite breakfast beverage.
