Instructions

1

Prep the Mug

Place the butter in a large microwave safe mug and microwave for about 15 seconds until melted. Swirl the mug to coat the inside with butter which helps prevent the eggs from sticking.

2

Mix the Eggs

Crack the eggs into the buttered mug and add the milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk everything together well with a fork until the yolks and whites are fully combined.

3

Microwave the Eggs

Microwave the egg mixture on high for 45 seconds, then stir with a fork. Microwave for another 30 to 45 seconds, stopping to stir every 15 seconds until the eggs are just set and fluffy.

Common mistakes
