Well not really. Townsend had a vid on for buttered eggs from 1775 Elizabeth Cleland ‘new and easy method of cookery’. The eggs are whipped then poured in to the pan cream and then butter in chunks are added, pepper and nutmeg added, cooked low and slow stirred to give it a fluffy texture.
So its scrambled eggs. However adding but nutmeg it taste like egg nog.
That was a go to spice for the day, used savory or sweet. And I like egg nog so I can’t say it was bad. Unusual at most
 
At the beginning of Treasure Island, when Long John is first encountered, there is a mention of young Jim Hawkens eating buttered eggs.
