This is the only cooking/food sub that allows pictures. This is the second time I’ve gotten a breakfast sandwich (two different places) with this kind of homogenous, smooth, minimal-bubbles egg square I’ve gotten and I can’t figure out how to replicate it at home! Anyone know? Ive tried baking eggs in a pan and that doesn’t work… there has to be a secret to it.. please help, if you can! Thank you!

Egg mix in carton, pour into a pan, bake, cut into squares
Microwave for a minute, minute and a half in a round mic-safe dish. Scramble first if you want homogenous (like this), stir if you want white and yolk ribbons (like McDonald’s).
Edit: they even make little dishes specifically for this, you can find on Amazon or wherever.
Microwave. But it’s most likely fake eggs
Absolutely microwave.
Sous vide can make eggs almost any consistency. Lots of people use it mostly for meat, but sous vide eggs are a game changer.
Add milk
The precracked eggs in a milk carton might get you closer as well, but not everyone likes to buy those
This is how kids in Russian (and many post soviet countries) kindergartens eat eggs. It’s literally called kindergarten omelette. It can be cooked in oven. Checked the recipe. It takes 6 eggs (or less, the proportion is 1egg= 50 ml of milk), 300 ml of milk, salt to taste. Coat the dish with butter, whisk eggs and milk, pour in the mixture and bake for 30 minutes at 200 degrees (Celsius).
So what I found illuminating was that the sous vide egg bites from Starbucks use cornstarch to get the consistency to be that way.
McDonald’s had a flat iron contraption with a ring apperatus. Crack the eggs in the ring, break the yolk and stir a bit. You would then close the top which had a water reservoir that boiled off water and steamed the eggs as well. We cooked about 6-12 eggs at a time.
Best bet, get a ring and a pan top, break yolk and stir, pour water on pan, cover.
Buy them and take them home, then bake them for a few seconds and claim them as your own
Use liquid eggs and mix with cottage cheese or powder parmesan cheese
Those look like powdered eggs. 🤢 Why would you want to achieve that?
Those are steamed eggs – made in a pressure steamer with plastic wrap over the pan.
check [this](https://youtu.be/gPXVJML0EUw?si=cVqZxyg3RziqEZBc) out. might be what you’re looking for.
You can get that in a microwave as mentioned. So I did 33 years with Burger King and here’s what I remember. Back in the day we did eggs on a griddle that rested in one of the fry vats. We used pasteurized liquid eggs with a butter flavored oil going on the griddle before each batch. One cup of eggs would yield 12 egg portions. For a while they did frozen egg patties that got baked in the oven for about 10 minutes. That was when they wanted to try and get rid of trans fats. Depending on what market you live in and what the franchise decides based on food cost and labor you will get one of those two products. Whoever called them fake eggs is a retard.
How do I get my Justegg like that? Lol
op please be careful if microwaving eggs, them fuckers are EXPLOSIVE
I make egg bites at home and blend 1 cup of cottage cheese with 8 eggs (adding in whatever toppings I like). The texture is so smooth and looks very much like your picture.
I bought a small scrambled egg maker from Walmart(takes 2 mins) they come out perfect exactly like the pic & it’s not fake eggs lol- give it a try!
It’s basically steamed so I’m assuming if you want to make them you can fill a pot with water & have a 2nd pot directly on top of the water to cook the eggs in(don’t quote me) – so you’re just cooking them with the steam.
Here’s the link to the device I got at Walmart:

Hope this helps
Add pancake batter like IHOP
My boyfriend has been adding a small amount milk and melted butter to his eggs when he whisks them before cooking and BOY do they turn out fluffy and moist and just GOOD! would recommend trying it. I always had regular scrambled eggs with some salt added, but that trick was a game changer to learn
it’s probably liquid egg
Add a spoonful of flour
what kind of hand is this????
Pretty sure these are eggs cooked in a water bath, similar to a cheesecake. Microwave eggs come out rubbery more often than not. Maybe give this recipe a try. [Real Simple Oven Eggs](https://www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/cooking-tips-techniques/insanely-delicious-way-make-steamed-eggs)
thought add milk
I make egg bites in a pressure cooker. The texture is the same as the one pictured. I add different meats and veggies to mine and put them in a tortilla or on toast.
Low heat on the stove, crack your egg(s) into a bowl, add your salt or whatever, whisk to ever loving cock. Then pour it into the pan with some butter or olive oil. Try to push the edges inwards to create the patty shape once it JUST begins to cook. When you’re able to push the whole thing around in the pan, then you can flip it but be very careful not to splatter it lol. Keep sliding it around to make sure it doesn’t burn.
I scramble them and then put them in a large muffin tray and bake them in the oven
Gatta steem them eggys
You can add a little milk to eggs when mixing them for scrambled eggs and it will fluff up like that. I would add like a couple of spoonfuls to 3-4 eggs if I was going for that consistency. A little cheese while the egg liquid in the pan can help too
Heavy cream and a bit of fizzy water
Add cottage cheese (about a teaspoon for one-two eggs) and whisk well. Also a splash of vinegar helps. Then, microwave as stated in other comments.
Well I’ve gotten my eggs fluffy like that many ways and one way is whisking it till it’s a very creamy yellow and sometimes butter works too and putting the lid on but that’s how I got my eggs like that once.
