Prep Time:5 mins
Cook Time:10 mins
Total Time:15 mins
Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 0.25 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 0.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 tablespoons green onion, finely chopped
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.125 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)
  • 4 slices toast or croissant (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl and whisk them until the yolks and whites are fully combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper to the eggs and whisk again until well-mixed.

Step 3

Set a non-stick skillet over low heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt slowly, coating the bottom of the pan.

Step 4

Once the butter is melted and slightly bubbling, pour the egg mixture into the skillet.

Step 5

Let the eggs sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds, then gently stir with a silicone spatula, pulling the eggs from the edges toward the center of the pan.

Step 6

Continue to cook the eggs over low heat, stirring gently and frequently, until they are just set but still slightly runny. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese over the eggs, folding gently to melt the cheese into the eggs.

Step 8

Add the red pepper flakes (if using) and half of the chopped green onion. Stir to combine, and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the eggs are cooked to your desired consistency.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the heat and immediately transfer the scrambled eggs to plates. Garnish with the remaining green onion and fresh parsley.

Step 10

Serve warm with toast or a flaky croissant on the side, and enjoy the Christmas morning magic!
