Recipe View Using a flexible spatula, gently push the cooked egg from the edges towards the center, tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath. Continue this process, stirring frequently and gently, until the eggs are mostly set but still appear slightly wet and creamy. (2-3 minutes)

Recipe View Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of butter to the eggs, stirring gently to incorporate. The residual heat will finish cooking the eggs to a perfect, custardy consistency. (1 minute)

Recipe View Serve immediately. For an elevated experience, consider garnishing with a dollop of crème fraîche or sour cream, a dash of your favorite hot sauce, and a sprinkle of freshly chopped chives or dill.

The key to fluffy scrambled eggs is low and slow cooking. Avoid high heat, which will result in dry, rubbery eggs.
Don't overcook the eggs in the pan; they will continue to cook off the heat. It's better to remove them slightly underdone than overdone.
Using high-quality, fresh eggs will significantly improve the flavor and texture of your scrambled eggs.
For an extra-rich flavor, try using browned butter instead of regular melted butter.
Experiment with different herbs and spices to customize your scrambled eggs to your liking. A pinch of black pepper, smoked paprika, or garlic powder can add depth of flavor.
