You Will Need

To make your own copycat waffle house cheese eggs you will need the following ingredients. 

Eggs
American Cheese
Butter
Salt and pepper

Eggs

The eggs you are going to want to use can be of any kind as long as they are basic, normal eggs. Our copycat recipe is for one serving, however, you can add as many eggs as you wish, to enjoy more servings. 

American Cheese

American cheese is the best kind of cheese to use for your copycat Waffle House cheese eggs. While there are many different types of American cheese you can use, my favorite kind is the melty cheese that comes in slices that are individually wrapped. Because this kind of cheese is naturally melty, it makes the best cheese to cook into your eggs. 

Butter

Although oil may be used in place of butter, the best results for this recipe are obtained by using butter. When you use butter, it helps to enhance the overall flavor of your eggs, making them taste epically delicious. 

Tips & Tricks 

A few of our tips and tricks to make your eggs turn out the best they possibly can are covered below. We have found that there are three main keys to help your eggs turn out amazing. 

Butter is Key. Using butter is of the utmost importance when it comes to making copycat Waffle House cheese eggs recipe. When you begin, start out by melting butter in your pan. Using butter helps your eggs have extra fluffiness and enhances the eggs’ overall flavors. 

How to Scramble. When making scrambled eggs, it can be difficult to tell when to start scrambling the eggs, and how to tell how much you should move them around. The best practice is to be gentle when scrambling your eggs, and begin once they start to turn white. 

Perfection in the Making. These copycat eggs are literally delicious perfection in the making. As you try to make your own copycat eggs at home, check out our quick video to see exactly how we made ours. Then try making some on your own, and let us know what you think!
