Creamy Cottage Cheese Scrambled Eggs Recipe
This Creamy Cottage Cheese Scrambled Eggs Recipe is soft, fluffy, and so creamy! Made with eggs, cottage cheese, butter, and simple seasoning.
Equipment
- Non-stick skillet
- Medium mixing bowl
- Whisk or fork
- Silicone spatula
- Measuring spoons
- Stove
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese full-fat for best flavor
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: chopped chives or parsley for garnish
Instructions
Step 1: Crack and Whisk
- Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the cottage cheese, salt, and pepper. Whisk gently until just combined. Don’t overmix—you want a slightly streaky mixture for better texture.
Step 2: Heat the Pan
- Place your non-stick skillet over low heat. Add the butter and let it melt slowly without browning.
Step 3: Add the Egg Mixture
- Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture into the pan. Let it sit for a few seconds until it just starts to set at the edges.
Step 4: Stir Gently
- Using a silicone spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center. Keep the heat low and move slowly. This is key for creamy eggs.
Step 5: Cook Until Soft
- Continue stirring gently until the eggs are softly set but still slightly glossy. Remove from heat—they will continue to cook slightly.
Step 6: Serve Immediately
- Transfer to a plate and garnish with fresh herbs if desired. Serve warm.
