Growing up, my dad always made the best scrambled eggs. It was a Sunday morning ritual in our house – he usually made ‘bacon scrambled’ where he’d fry up little bits of bacon first, then fold in deliciously fluffy eggs for the perfect breakfast on toast.
While I learned to make really good eggs (always with milk) from my dad, I don’t keep milk in the house too often now. I started making them with Greek Yogurt instead, and let me tell you – they are amazing! The fluffiest eggs! They have loads of flavor, a really nice tang, and are high in protein.

What’s In These Greek Yogurt Scrambled Eggs?
Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!
- Greek Yogurt – make sure it’s plain and unsweetened! You can use a fat free Greek yogurt like this one (it’s our favorite!) or a full fat yogurt too.
- Butter – I like to use unsalted butter to reduce the amount of sodium in my cooking.
- Eggs
- Red Chili Pepper Flakes: for a little heat! I like to add a few shakes to this recipe to give this dish a nice complex depth of flavor.
- Sea salt and black pepper
How Do I Make These Scrambled Eggs with Yogurt?
- In a large pan, heat the butter over low heat until the bottom of the pan is coated and butter has melted
- In a bowl, add the eggs, Greek yogurt, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Beat together until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Pour the eggs into the pan, cooking over very low heat. Low and slow is the rule for scrambled eggs, it helps to cook the eggs evenly.
- Every few minutes scrape the cooked eggs off the bottom of the pan with a spatula and fold into the pan. Repeat cooking for about 8-10 minutes until eggs are firm and cooked, no longer runny.
- Plate eggs over toast of choice, and add toppings: I used black pepper – but use your favorite fresh vegetables or herbs. Enjoy!
