Scrambled eggs are a great family breakfast, but one mum says she has the ultimate hack to make “perfectly scrambled eggs” in just one minute. The best part of it is that it saves on washing up any pans as it doesn’t use any.
The TikTok creator and mum behind @yummytoddlerfood explained how she swaps the stove for the microwave to make cheesy scrambled eggs for her little ones.
Of course, the tip can be used to make eggs for family members of any age.
The TikTok creator said: “One minute eggs hack. No pan no fuss because sometimes using a pan is just too much effort. This method works so well. Anything to make cooking a little easier.”
In the video, she continued: “When my kids want eggs in the morning but getting out a pan and turning on the stove is just too much for me I make them in the microwave in a minute.
“I’ve been doing this since my kids were babies and it has saved me so many times.”
Begin by cracking one or two eggs into a greased bowl. The mum uses olive oil spray, but you can use any cooking oil you have to hand.
Next, stir the eggs with a fork until smooth and then transfer into a microwave-safe dish. Pop your eggs into the microwave for 30 seconds.
“Stop once during the cooking to stir,” added the mum. Then, pop your eggs back into the microwave for between 15 and 30 seconds.
Finally, add cheese at the end to melt into the eggs and allow the egg to cool before serving it.
“You need to break the cooked egg up with a fork, but when you do it’s perfectly fluffy,” added the mum.
Then you have perfectly scrambled eggs every single time.”
