Soft Scrambled Eggs with Chives

Prep: 3 min

Cook: 8 min

Serves: 2

Temp: 300°F

These are the eggs I make on mornings when I want something warm and comforting but do not have the energy to stand over a stove. The air fryer keeps the heat gentle and steady, which is exactly what scrambled eggs need. They come out soft, creamy, and never rubbery.

INGREDIENTS

• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
• Salt and black pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS

Preheat your air fryer to 300°F for 2 minutes.
Whisk the eggs together with the milk, a pinch of salt, and a few cracks of black pepper.
Place a small oven-safe dish or ramekin inside the basket and add the butter. Let it melt for about 1 minute, then pour in the egg mixture.
Cook for 6 to 7 minutes, pausing to gently stir every 2 minutes, until the eggs are just set and still look slightly glossy.
Remove, scatter the chives on top, and serve right away.

💡 Tip

For extra creaminess, remove the eggs from the air fryer while they still look a little wet — they will continue to set from residual heat. Don't skip the fresh chives; they add a bright, oniony pop that makes the dish sing.
