Ingredients

For the Sourdough Toast

For the Scrambled Eggs

  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2-4 tablespoons cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions

  • Toast the sourdough bread to your desired doneness using a toaster or toaster oven. Immediately butter with 1 teaspoon of butter. Set aside.
    1 slice sourdough bread, 1 teaspoon unsalted butter
  • Preheat a well-seasoned cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. While the skillet is heating up, beat together the eggs, salt, and pepper in a small mixing bowl.
    2 large eggs, ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • Add ½ tablespoon of butter to the preheated skillet and allow it to melt completely. Once melted, pour the whisked eggs into the pan and allow the eggs to cook for about 30 seconds or until the bottom begins to set. Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, gently drag the utensil through the eggs in long, slow strokes. Keep slowly dragging your utensil through the eggs, gently folding them over every so often, so that you create large egg curds. Before the eggs have fully set, sprinkle in the cheddar cheese. Continue cooking the eggs for approximately 2-4 minutes or until the eggs reach your desired doneness and consistency.
    ½ tablespoon unsalted butter, 2-4 tablespoons cheddar cheese
  • Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, remove the skillet from the heat. Spoon the cooked scrambled eggs carefully onto the toasted bread and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 6 months.
