Tools You’ll Need

- Stir in the drained pineapple and diced ham.
Step 2: Cook the Eggs
- Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until melted.
- Pour in the egg mixture and let it sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds to start setting.

Tips for the Best Fluffy Scrambled Eggs
- Whisk Well: The more air you incorporate, the fluffier the eggs!
- Low and Slow: Cooking over medium-low heat prevents overcooking and keeps the eggs creamy.
- Drain the Pineapple: Too much liquid can make the eggs watery, so be sure to drain it well.
- Use a Silicone Spatula: It helps create soft, fluffy curds without breaking them apart too much.
Storage Instructions
- Refrigerate Leftovers: Store any leftover eggs in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- Reheat Gently: Warm in a skillet over low heat or microwave in short bursts, stirring in between.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A: Absolutely! Use coconut milk or almond milk instead of dairy milk, and swap butter for oil or dairy-free margarine.
