Its fair to say nothing quite beats light and fluffy scrambled eggs on toast slathered in butter for breakfast. Its delicious, full of good-for-you nutrients and is super filling.
But scrambled eggs are one of those simple recipes thats so easy to mess up. Far too often were left with dry, rubbery or undercooked, watery eggs that are a far cry from the restaurant-quality wed imagine dishing up for breaky but it doesnt have to be that way.  Next time you make scrambled eggs try adding one of these surprising ingredients listed below youll get light and fluffy scrambled eggs every time.
Baking powder
While some people like to add heavy cream or milk to their eggs, some cooks swear by adding a pinch of baking powder, which is traditionally used as a leavening agent in baked goods, to make scrambled eggs super fluffy and creamy. Just mix a small amount of baking powder (half a teaspoon per two large eggs) into beaten eggs before cooking and watch the magic happen. And while baking powder may make your eggs more fluffy, its still up to you to get the technique right. As a general rule of thumb, the eggs shouldnt be in the pan for any more than two minutes. Any longer and theyll be overcooked!
Mayonnaise
It may sound a bit icky at first but turns out a dollop of plain old mayo can also give scrambled eggs a nice, creamy texture. All you have to do is mix some mayonnaise and eggs together with a fork before cooking its that simple! And if you have any fussy eaters at home, rest assured, it wont change the flavour, so they wont even notice its in there. Who wouldve thought to add mayo to eggs?
Cornstarch
If youre after light and fluffy scrambled eggs, add some cornstarch and milk to the mix. Adding cornstarch to the eggs protects them from overcooking and turning into a not-so-pleasant rubbery mess. To get started, crack three eggs (or however many youd like) into a medium bowl. Then, in a separate bowl, evenly whisk together the milk (1 1/2 tablespoons) and cornstarch (1 3/4 teaspoons) until its lump-free. Then add the milk and cornstarch mixture to your eggs, and beat until smooth, before cooking.
