I struggle with omelettes, flipping them, getting them cooked all the way through, so this is such a good idea, I've had great luck making them this way.
I've made this sweet omelette several times now, serving it with link sausage and maple syrup and it's delicious! The same recipe can also be made using savory ingredients. This is so easy, and it is just yummy!
Sweet Omelette
3 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon sugar - I'm always watching calories so I use a tablespoon of Splenda
1 tablespoon flour
tiny pinch of salt, don't leave it out, just a smidge is enough
Cooking spray
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Steps
Spray and heat 6.5-7" skillet on medium heat.
I put all of the ingredients in a bullet blender to make sure the flour was well distributed. It worked great but you could also just whisk it thoroughly.
Pour the eggy mixture onto the pan and cover with the lid.
Cook on medium heat for 2-3 minutes, then turn to low. Mine cooks in 7 minutes, it's perfect, just a bit custardy on the inside. The omelette will puff up a lot and once the lid is removed the omelet will fall. Don't panic, it's what its supposed to do.
Savory Omelette
Same recipe, except omit the sugar. Stir in whatever you like to make it savory before you bake it. Onions, peppers, bacon, crumbled cook sausage, a dash of hot sauce, grated cheese, hot pepper flakes. Whatever floats your boat, cook the same way and you will have the easiest omelette you ever made. With all the inclusions it might take just a minute longer to cook. Check it at the 7-8 minute mark and determine if it's done. If you turn to low to cook, your bottom should brown nicely and it doesn't burn.
This entire recipe is 22 grams of protein and 300 calories. It keeps you satisfied for hours! If you're into presentation, dust it with confectioner's sugar and add a few raspberries or blueberries...
