Alex and I don’t make fancy breakfasts often, but when we do it’s usually for guests. And this recipe for soft scrambled eggs is our go-to! You’ll start with my mom’s method for the best scrambled eggs, cooking the eggs over low heat and gently shaping them into soft folds. Then for an elevated, tangy flair, crumble in goat cheese. You can also use cheddar or Parmesan cheese, if you prefer. What results is a creamy, gooey mess filled with tangy cheese pockets. These eggs are always a huge hit with guests. Consider serving with our lemony pan fried asparagus: it’s the perfect pairing!

How to make soft scrambled eggs with cheese

These soft scrambled eggs with cheese are nearly impossible to mess up. But to make sure your eggs come out perfectly, there are a few tips you should keep in mind: This recipe is one of three in our Spring Brunch Menu, but the eggs are quick enough for a weekday breakfast or for brinner, which would be our choice. This is also a great choice for Mother’s Day brunch.

How to serve them!

This is your epic brunch spread, so serve these scrambled eggs however you like! But if you need some pointers, Alex and I love sprinkling chopped chives on top of these eggs. The chives add a subtle burst of freshness to the gooey eggs without overpowering the dish. You can also enjoy these eggs with a slice of good-quality toast, or enjoy the asparagus and eggs pairing. If asparagus is in season in your area, try buying it at a farmer’s market. Got chives? Try Eggs with Chives, or more of our Best Chives Recipes!
