Ingredients
  

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 tsp coarse salt
  • 1 tbsp chives finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 slices sourdough bread
  • 1/2 cup whole milk ricotta cheese

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Prepare the Egg Mixture
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, chopped chives, and coarse salt until fully combined and slightly frothy.
  • Step 2: Toast the Bread
  • Toast the sourdough slices until golden brown and crisp around the edges. Set aside.
  • Step 3: Melt the Butter
  • Place a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and melt the unsalted butter gently. Avoid browning the butter.
  • Step 4: Cook the Eggs
  • Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook slowly while stirring constantly with a heat-proof spatula. Continue stirring until the eggs form soft curds and are mostly cooked but still slightly glossy. This should take about 2 minutes.
  • Step 5: Add the Ricotta
  • Remove the skillet from the heat and gently fold in the ricotta cheese. Leave a few visible pockets of ricotta for extra creaminess and texture.
  • Step 6: Assemble and Serve
  • Spoon the creamy scrambled eggs over the toasted sourdough immediately. Serve warm for the ultimate Easy 6-Ingredient Egg and Ricotta Toast experience.

Notes

  • For extra richness, drizzle with olive oil before serving.
  • Add sliced avocado or roasted tomatoes for a heartier meal.
  • Fresh herbs like dill or parsley also work beautifully.
