I never liked scrambled eggs before trying this recipe for Grandma Lynne’s Scrambled Eggs and Onions. Now, I can’t get enough! Bonus points – you only need 3 ingredients (not counting salt and pepper!).

I have never been the biggest fan of eggs. I’m just not.

Wait, I take that back. I absolutely love my deviled eggs (which I’ve been told are the best ever many times!)

But, if it’s not my deviled eggs—I’m not exactly a fan.

However, since I have several hens in my backyard that give me almost a dozen eggs a day, I really need to like eggs a lot better than I do.

Guess what?

I found a recipe for scrambled eggs that I really, really love—the only scrambled eggs I’ve ever truly loved and craved.

Scrambled Eggs with Onions

The recipe actually comes from the family of my Michael’s oldest & best friend – Eric.

It was his grandma’s eggs that she taught his mom to make, and his mom in turn taught him to make.

I tried them on a whim & was pretty surprised when I wanted seconds. Wanting seconds of scrambled eggs is something that has never ever happened to me, my friends.

Ever since trying them, this is the only way I will eat scrambled eggs. They are so stupidly simple to make too. All you need is butter, eggs, minced onion, salt, & pepper.

How to Make Scrambled Eggs with Onions

And this is all you do. Saute one small onion with a little bit of butter on medium heat. Cook the onion until translucent.

Scramble 5 eggs in a bowl with a fork. Pour into the hot skillet with the onions.

Cook on medium heat, while stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan occasionally, until the eggs are cooked through. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

You can add cheese too if you like, but they’re delicious just as they are, and this is coming from a self described egg hater!

Sometimes I’ll add a fre cloves of garlic confit and oh boy, it’s sooo good!
