Goat Cheese Scrambled Eggs Recipe
Description
This recipe blends whole eggs and egg whites with skim milk to create a light base. The mixture is cooked in a non-stick skillet over medium heat with careful folding to gently cook without overcooking the eggs. Around halfway through cooking, crumbled goat cheese is added, infusing the eggs with a creamy, tangy richness. Red pepper flakes and seasoning complete the flavor profile while chopped scallions add a fresh garnish.
The low and slow cooking method prevents toughness, preserving a silky texture in the finished scrambled eggs. The goat cheese adds a distinctive, slightly tart creaminess that elevates simple eggs. This dish serves well as a warm breakfast offering or a light meal when paired with sautéed potatoes and a green side.
Key tips include avoiding high heat to maintain tenderness and serving immediately after cooking to preserve texture. Milk alternatives such as almond milk may alter color but function similarly. The recipe is straightforward and adaptable based on garnishes and accompaniments.
Ingredients
- 2 egg
- ½ cup egg white
- 3 tbsp milk skim
- 1 ½ oz goat cheese
- pinch red pepper flakes
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- scallions chopped for garnish
- cooking spray
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, egg whites, and milk until everything is combined.
- Heat a non-stick skillet to medium heat. Wait until the skillet is warm and ready to cook the eggs.
- Spray with cooking spray and pour in the egg mixture in.
- Allow eggs to cook. As the eggs begin to partially set around the edges of the pan, push the edges towards the center, allowing the uncooked eggs to spill toward the outside. Keep folding eggs inward without flipping for 2-3 minutes.
- Crumble fresh goat cheese onto the eggs, season with red pepper flakes, and salt + pepper.
- Serve hot with Copycat IHOP Crispy Potatoes and fresh greens. Enjoy!
Notes
- Avoid high heat to prevent tough scrambled eggs; cook slowly for creamy texture.
- Serve immediately after cooking to keep eggs tender; reheating can dry them out.
- Almond milk or other milk alternatives may cause slight color changes but do not affect taste.
