Begin by crushing the Ritz crackers into fine crumbs. Place them in a shallow dish for coating.
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk, salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk everything together until the mixture is fully combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the vegetable oil, allowing it to heat up until shimmering.
Dip each egg (or a poached/hard-boiled egg, if using) into the egg-milk mixture, ensuring it is thoroughly coated.
Roll the egg in the crushed Ritz crackers, pressing gently to ensure the crumbs stick evenly.
Carefully place the coated egg into the hot frying pan. Repeat with the remaining eggs.
Fry the eggs on all sides until golden brown and crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side.
Remove the eggs from the pan and drain on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
Serve immediately, either on their own or with your favorite dipping sauce!
