Keto Scrambled Eggs

Keto Scrambled Eggs are made by gently cooking whisked eggs with mustard and salt in butter over low heat to produce soft, tender curds that remain slightly runny inside. This method yields rich, creamy eggs suitable for low-carbohydrate and keto diets and pairs well with smoked salmon, avocado, and grilled tomatoes for a satisfying brunch or meal.

Ingredients

  • 4 egg large
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • ½ teaspoon mustard
  • salt to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Whisk the egg, salt and mustard in a bowl.
  2. Melt the butter in a non-stick pan over medium heat. As soon as it is melted - and not browned - pour in the whisked egg. Turn the heat to low.
  3. Let the egg set for 20 seconds. Then begin to stir with a wooden spoon or spatula. Lift and fold the egg over from the bottom of the pan. Break down any larger pieces.
  4. Continue until the eggs are softly set and still runny in places. Take your time!
  5. Take the pan off the heat just BEFORE the eggs are finished. They will continue to cook in the hot pan.
  6. Give them a last stir and serve immediately!

Notes

  • Net carbs are approximately 0.9g per serving of eggs alone; sides like avocado and smoked salmon increase total net carbs accordingly.
  • For a fuller meal, serve with grilled tomatoes brushed with olive oil and a bit of salt.
  • Cheeses such as crumbled feta, grated, or cream cheese can be stirred into eggs to add richness.
  • Cook eggs gently over low heat and remove from heat just before fully set to avoid dryness.
  • Use a non-stick pan and wooden spoon or spatula to fold and lift eggs for soft curds.
