Creamy Pear Scramble

A post-workout breakfast delight

This creamy pear scramble recipe is inspired by Cinnamon Eats’s recent post (which she adapted from, It Starts With Food).

The scramble came together on a whim this morning after I got home from a great workout. I got to thinking about Cinnamon Eats’ spicy pear omelette, but didn’t feel like carefully crafting an omelette. Instead, I decided to go with the messy scramble route because it’s so much easier and kinda foolproof too.

Let me tell you, this pear scramble is all of the following:

  • sweet
  • savory
  • creamy
  • spicy (warm-spiced, not hot spicy)
  • satisfying
  • amazing

Pear and eggs come together in a decadent, creamy scramble

Creamy Pear Scramble

Ingredients:

  • 1 ripe pear, chopped
  • 2 pastured eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 Tbsp grass-fed butter or ghee
  • 1/2 – 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • Dash of Himalayan sea salt
  • Cinnamon to taste (I just shook a whole bunch on, the more the better)
  • 1 Tbsp coconut cream concentrate (coconut butter is the same thing)
  • 1 Tbsp chopped walnuts
  • Drizzle of raw honey, optional
  • 2 Applegate Naturals chicken apple breakfast sausages or other good-quality sausage of choice, for serving, optional

Directions:

  1. Heat small skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken apple sausages and let cook, rotating every couple minutes until done. (I cook them straight from the freezer, so it takes about 8 minutes). Once done, keep in the pan on low to stay warm.
  2. Meanwhile, heat the butter in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped pear and stir for about 30 seconds.
  3. Add the vanilla to the beaten eggs, along with the cinnamon and dash of sea salt. Then, add to the pan with the pear.
  4. Mix around to incorporate the scramble and continue to cook over medium or medium-low heat. Drizzle the coconut butter on top and mix together. Drizzle in the honey as well, if using.
  5. Once the scramble is done or nearly done, mix in the walnuts. Serve with the cooked chicken apple sausages, if desired.

    I would never in a million years have thought to team pear with scrambled egg. Obvious once you mention it, especially given my scrambledorf recipe! Adding pears to the shopping list this week – looks delicious!
