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?

  1. In a large pan, heat the butter over low heat until the bottom of the pan is coated and butter has melted
  2. In a bowl, add the eggs, Greek yogurt, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Beat together until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Plate eggs over toast of choice, and add toppings: I used black pepper – but use your favorite fresh vegetables or herbs.  Enjoy!
