Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
• 4 slices bacon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chopped chives (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Begin by heating a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the bacon slices to the skillet. Cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until crispy. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.

Step 3

While the bacon cooks, crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add the almond milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 4

After removing the bacon, carefully wipe the skillet clean. Add olive oil to the skillet and warm over medium-low heat.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit without stirring for 10-20 seconds, allowing the edges to begin setting.

Step 6

Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges to the center, letting the uncooked eggs flow to the edges. Repeat this process, stirring occasionally until the eggs are fully cooked but still slightly runny, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the eggs from heat when they are creamy and soft. Overcooking will make them rubbery.

Step 8

Serve the scrambled eggs immediately, garnished with optional chopped chives, and accompanied by the crispy bacon slices.

Step 9

Enjoy your dairy-free scrambled eggs with bacon!
