How we chose
Research-backed · reviewed Aug 2026
We compared small skillets specifically for eggs and single portions: release, maneuverability, heat behavior, coating trade-offs, cooktop fit, and long-term care. Epicurious testing informed the material choices; manufacturer specifications established exact models. Kwilt has not cooked tamagoyaki in these pans.
OXO Good Grips Pro 8-inch Frying Pan: The light hard-anodized body and nonstick surface make thin egg layers easy to move while you learn the rolling rhythm. Trade-off: Nonstick coatings wear with use and require gentler utensils and heat than an uncoated steel or cast-iron pan.
Tramontina Professional 8-inch Fry Pan: Heavy-gauge aluminum spreads heat quickly, and the simple commercial form keeps the cost focused on cooking performance. Trade-off: This model is intended for gas and electric heat rather than induction, and its nonstick surface remains a replaceable part.
Lodge 8-inch Cast Iron Skillet: Seasoned cast iron avoids a synthetic coating and can serve far beyond this Recipe for baking, searing, and small portions. Trade-off: It is heavier to tilt, slower to respond, and needs a well-maintained seasoning layer plus careful oiling for delicate eggs.
Another workable path: If you already have an 8-inch skillet, use it. A round pan makes softer edges than a rectangular pan, but the same thin-layer rolling method works.

3 cups full-fat plain Greek yogurt
3/4 cup walnut halves
1/4 cup Greek thyme honey or other floral honey
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of flaky sea salt

Instructions

Toast walnuts in a over medium-low, shaking often, until fragrant and lightly browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Cool 5 minutes and chop coarsely.
Divide cold thick yogurt among four shallow bowls and smooth the surface without whipping out its body.
Drizzle each portion with honey rather than stirring it fully through.
Add toasted walnuts, cinnamon, and a few grains of flaky salt. Serve immediately while the nuts remain crisp.
