Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
- 2 pieces low-carb bread slices
Instructions
In a medium bowl, crack four large eggs and add two tablespoons of heavy cream. Whisk together until well combined and set aside.
Chop the fresh chives and set aside to be used as garnish.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add one tablespoon of butter. Allow the butter to melt completely.
Once the butter is melted, pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Do not stir immediately; allow the eggs to set slightly.
Using a spatula, gently fold the eggs from the edges towards the center. Continue cooking gently while folding occasionally until the eggs are softly set and slightly runny in places.
Season the scrambled eggs with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove the skillet from heat a little early as the eggs will continue to cook in the residual heat.
While the eggs are cooking, toast the low-carb bread slices until golden brown and crispy in a toaster or on a pan over medium heat.
Serve the scrambled eggs over the toasted low-carb bread slices. Sprinkle the chopped fresh chives over the eggs as a garnish.
Enjoy your delicious and low-carb scrambled eggs on toast right away!
