Ingredients
Basic Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
Optional Add-ins
- 2 tbsp shredded cheese
- 1 tbsp chopped veggies or ham
Instructions
- Prepare the Mug: Spray the inside of a microwave-safe mug lightly with oil to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Mix Ingredients: Crack the eggs into the mug and add the milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk everything together thoroughly until well combined.
- Microwave First Interval: Microwave the mixture on high for 45 seconds. This initial cooking starts setting the eggs.
- Stir Eggs: Carefully remove the mug and stir the eggs to ensure even cooking and to prevent the texture from becoming rubbery.
- Microwave Final Interval: Microwave for an additional 30 to 45 seconds or until the eggs are fully set and fluffy.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Sprinkle shredded cheese or your choice of chopped veggies or ham on top, and enjoy your quick, warm breakfast right from the mug.
Notes
- Cooking time may vary depending on the wattage of your microwave, so adjust accordingly to avoid overcooking.
- Stirring halfway through cooking is important to create a fluffy texture and prevent the eggs from becoming rubbery.
- Feel free to customize your eggs by adding herbs, spices, or your favorite breakfast meats or vegetables.
