Notes
Storage:
Scrambled eggs are best served fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Optional Add-Ins:
1/4 cup shredded cheese1 teaspoon chopped chives2 tablespoons chopped onion1/4 cup chopped ham1/4 cup cooked and crumbled bacon1/4 cup spinach1/4 cup diced asparagus1 cup Homemade Pico De Gallo (salsa or a can of rotel (drained) will also work!)
Tips:
These eggs are made simply with eggs, salt, pepper and butter. You may choose to add some milk, but this is not necessary and if you choose to add milk, just 1 ½ teaspoons per egg should be added.
Many wish to add other ingredients to their scrambled eggs. There is no wrong way, so add whatever your family likes. You may need a little extra cooking time, but it shouldn’t increase the cook time by much more than a minute or so.
Eggs cooked in the air fryer will need to be removed as soon as the time is done. The air fryer will remain hot and continue drying out the eggs.
