A quick and easy breakfast recipe featuring fluffy scrambled eggs enriched with creamy beer cheese and crispy bacon bits, delivering a rich, tangy, and satisfying flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1/3 cup (about 80g) beer cheese spread (e.g., Beechwood Beer Cheese)
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked until crispy and chopped into bits (or turkey bacon for leaner option)
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) whole milk or cream (or almond/oat milk alternative for dairy-free)
  • Pinch of salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: chopped chives or parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook the bacon: Place 4 bacon slices in a cold skillet and cook over medium heat until crispy, about 8–10 minutes, flipping occasionally. Drain on paper towels, then chop into small bits.
  2. Beat the eggs: In a mixing bowl, crack 4 large eggs. Add 2 tablespoons (30ml) of whole milk or cream, a pinch of salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Whisk vigorously until smooth and slightly frothy, about 1 minute.
  3. Heat the pan and butter: Wipe out the bacon fat or use a clean skillet. Place it over medium-low heat and add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Let it melt fully, swirling the pan to coat the surface.
  4. Cook the eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it sit undisturbed for about 20 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges toward the center. Continue folding every 15 seconds for about 3–4 minutes.
  5. Add the beer cheese: When the eggs are about halfway set but still slightly runny, dollop 1/3 cup (80g) of beer cheese over the eggs. Gently fold it in, allowing it to melt and combine throughout the eggs.
  6. Finish cooking: Continue folding until eggs are softly set but still moist and creamy. Remove from heat immediately to avoid overcooking.
  7. Mix in bacon bits: Stir in most of the crispy bacon bits, reserving a few for garnish.
  8. Plate and garnish: Serve immediately on warm plates, topped with remaining bacon bits and optional chopped fresh herbs like chives or parsley.

Notes

Cook eggs on medium-low heat and fold gently to keep them creamy and fluffy. Add beer cheese when eggs are partially set to ensure smooth melting. Use room temperature eggs for better texture. Bacon can be cooked ahead and stored in the fridge for up to a week. For dairy-free, substitute beer cheese and milk with plant-based alternatives and butter with coconut or olive oil.
