Experience the ultimate breakfast indulgence with Custardy Eggs on Crispy Toast — ultra-creamy, buttery scrambled eggs with a silky, custard-like texture, piled generously over perfectly golden, crunchy toast.

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

  • 1 tablespoon milk or cream

  • 1 slice hearty bread (such as sourdough or whole grain)

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, gently whisk the eggs and milk together until fully combined, being careful not to over-beat.

  2. Toast the bread until crispy and golden; set aside.

  3. Heat a nonstick skillet over low heat and slowly melt the butter.

  4. Pour the eggs into the skillet and stir continuously with a silicone spatula, keeping the eggs moving slowly.

  5. As soft curds begin to form, briefly remove the pan from heat while stirring, then return it. Repeat to ensure a slow, even cook.

  6. Cook until the eggs are creamy, glossy, and just set with a soft, custard-like texture.

  7. Season the eggs with salt and pepper to taste.

  8. Spoon the custardy eggs generously over the crispy toast and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Low and slow cooking is key to achieving a silky custard texture.

  • Using a silicone spatula helps prevent sticking and overcooking.

  • For extra richness, add a small dollop of crème fraîche at the end.

  • Try topping with fresh herbs like chives or dill for a burst of flavor.
