Ingredients
1 or 2 eggs per child
Splash of milk
Salt and pepper to taste
Butter
Mixing bowl
Whisk or handheld egg beater
Spatula for turning eggs in pan
Heat source and frying pan, or electric frying pan
Directions
Bring everything you need to make the scrambled mixture to the table—the bowl, the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Have a rag handy to wipe up spills or messy fingers! Demonstrate how you crack an egg on the side of the bowl or directly on the table. Cracking eggs is a science, so don’t be concerned if shells get in the bowl—you can fish them out! Some young children get concerned if they get any of the egg white on their hands or fingers, so have a rag or paper towel available. Let them take turns scrambling the eggs, using either a fork, a whisk, or a handheld mixer. Add the butter to your pan, over medium heat, and let it melt. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and let it sit briefly. Be sure your child understands the pan is extremely hot and not to be touched! If you’d like, you can add some shredded cheese to your mixture. Continue to turn the eggs, letting them cook thoroughly. Cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
