Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chives, finely chopped (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the unsweetened almond milk and salt.
Step 2
Whisk the eggs, almond milk, and salt together until they are fully combined and present a uniform color.
Step 3
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
Step 4
Once the oil is hot, pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
Step 5
Let the eggs sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds to start setting at the edges.
Step 6
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, creating soft folds and ensuring they cook evenly. Stir occasionally and avoid overmixing to keep them from turning into a singular solid mass.
Step 7
Continue to cook and gently stir until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny; this should take about 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from the heat; the residual heat will finish cooking the eggs to a creamy consistency.
Step 9
Season with black pepper and garnish with chopped chives if desired.
Step 10
Serve immediately while hot.
