Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoons olive oil or unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
- 1 slice sourdough bread (optional, low GI certified)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl and whisk thoroughly until the yolks and whites are fully combined and slightly frothy.
Add the unsweetened almond milk to the eggs, along with the salt and black pepper, and whisk again to incorporate.
Heat a non-stick skillet over low to medium-low heat and add the olive oil or unsalted butter, swirling to coat the pan evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit undisturbed for 15-20 seconds.
Using a rubber spatula, gently stir and scrape the eggs from the edges of the skillet toward the center, repeating this motion as the eggs begin to set.
Continue to gently stir and fold the eggs to create soft curds. Adjust the heat to low if the eggs are cooking too quickly.
Remove the skillet from heat when the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, as the residual heat will finish cooking them.
Optionally, toast the sourdough bread and serve the scrambled eggs on top or alongside it for a satisfying low GI meal.
Garnish with freshly chopped chives for a burst of flavor and color. Serve immediately.
