FAQs & Tips

How many eggs should you use?

You can cook anywhere from 12 eggs to 48 as long as you have a slow cooker that is large enough to fit it all. The more eggs you use, the longer you may need to cook the eggs but the simplicity of the recipe will remain the same. The recipe is written to feed a holiday brunch crowd so I used two dozen (24 eggs). If you use 12 eggs, cut the recipe in half.

Should you use milk or cream? 

I find that the key to fluffy slow cooker scrambled eggs lies in what dairy you use.  One of the things I love about this recipe is that you can use your preferred milk and cheese. I used buttermilk. I like to add buttermilk to my eggs because it’s not as heavy as whipping cream and it helps keep the eggs soft during the slow cooking process.

What type of cheese should you use?

Use your preferred cheese whether it be cheddar, mozzarella, or Monterey jack cheese. If you don’t want to use cheese, simply omit it.

Can you add meat and vegetables to this?

Absolutely! Add your favorite cooked meats and veggies. Suggestions include diced onion, bell pepper, sausage, or bacon.

What if you forget to grease the slow cooker?

If you forget to grease the slow cooker generously with butter or use a slow cooker liners….be prepared for the eggs to stick. Cooking spray is not enough, you need to use butter. 

What if your eggs aren’t done by the listed cooking time?

Every slow cooker heats differently. Your eggs might done after 6 hours on low or it may end up taking 8 (it shouldn’t though). Insert a knife into the center; when it comes out clean you’ll know it’s done. Mine took about 6 1/2 hours on low.

How do you store leftovers?

Store leftover crockpot scrambled eggs in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. 

What size slow cooker did you use?

I use a  6-quart slow cooker for this recipe.
