Avocado Scrambled Eggs – A healthy breakfast to start your day off right. Buttery avocado mixed with creamy scrambled eggs makes for a great breakfast.
Avocado and eggs just kind of go together. Avocado toast is all the rage right now, and want is one of the most common things to put on it? A fried egg. It is just a flavor combo that works!
Personally I am not a fan of a runny egg yolk, I am more of a scrambled egg kind of girl. So mixing in pieces of buttery avocado just makes sense to me. And man does it take your eggs to a whole new level!
The creamy scrambled eggs with the soft avocado is something you will be going back to over and over again. Plus it is ready in about 5 minutes, so you can’t beat that on a busy morning!
How To Make Avocado Scrambled Eggs
- You want to whisk together your eggs with a tiny bit of milk. You can use cream as well, but I think milk gives the same results with less fat and calories. The more you whisk and incorporate air into the eggs the fluffier they will be.
- Get a skillet hot and then melt a little butter in it. Pour in the eggs and gently stir them around.
- Once the eggs start to set stir in the avocado.
- Cook until the eggs are to your desired done-ness and then top with chives and season with salt and pepper to taste.
So if you are looking for a new way to mix up your breakfast this is it! I know avocado toast is the new thing, but serve your scrambled eggs and avocado on a piece of toast and call it good.
The chunks of buttery avocado make this so much better than the mashed on toast version.

I love eggs but rarely add anything in with them besides bacon. These look great! And I really want some giant strawberries now.
Nicole @ Healthy Way to Cook says
I’ve been OBSESSED with avocado lately, and this sounds like it’s a delicious way to eat scrambled eggs! I feel like bacon would be a great addition to this.

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day! During the week it’s normally yogurt and fruit but on the weekend I go all out! I love it and i would love your eggs. They look incredible!!

Avocados are my favorite! This recipe makes me giddy. I usually just grab something quick now that I have an office job but the addition of avocado would make me jump out of bed a little bit earlier to make this.

I never thought to pair avocado and eggs… gives the meaning of green eggs a whole new meaning. 🙂

You need to get a blender NOW! When we go to the local diner for breakfast I always get the avocado omelette. The avocado definitely makes the eggs go down better.

Never tried this combo together before but I’m sure it’s a good one.
