Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoons olive oil or unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
- 1 slice sourdough bread (optional, low GI certified)
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl and whisk thoroughly until the yolks and whites are fully combined and slightly frothy.
Step 2
Add the unsweetened almond milk to the eggs, along with the salt and black pepper, and whisk again to incorporate.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet over low to medium-low heat and add the olive oil or unsalted butter, swirling to coat the pan evenly.
Step 4
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit undisturbed for 15-20 seconds.
Step 5
Using a rubber spatula, gently stir and scrape the eggs from the edges of the skillet toward the center, repeating this motion as the eggs begin to set.
Step 6
Continue to gently stir and fold the eggs to create soft curds. Adjust the heat to low if the eggs are cooking too quickly.
Step 7
Remove the skillet from heat when the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, as the residual heat will finish cooking them.
Step 8
Optionally, toast the sourdough bread and serve the scrambled eggs on top or alongside it for a satisfying low GI meal.
Step 9
Garnish with freshly chopped chives for a burst of flavor and color. Serve immediately.
