Ingredients

• 1 bagel
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons cream cheese (optional)
• 1 tablespoon chives (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the bagel in half and toast it in a toaster until golden brown.

Step 2

Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, and whisk until the mixture is smooth.

Step 3

Add the salt and black pepper to the egg mixture and stir to combine.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt completely, coating the skillet evenly.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for a few seconds until it begins to set around the edges.

Step 6

Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs from the edges to the center, forming soft curds. Continue cooking until the eggs are softly cooked and slightly runny; remove from heat. They will continue to cook from the residual heat.

Step 7

Spread cream cheese on one or both sides of the toasted bagel if desired.

Step 8

Spoon the scrambled eggs onto the bottom half of the bagel.

Step 9

Top with chives if using for added flavor.

Step 10

Place the top half of the bagel over the eggs, forming a sandwich, and serve immediately.
