Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tbsp milk or cream optional
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese optional
- 1/4 cup diced vegetables bell peppers, onions, spinach, etc. (optional)
- 1/4 cup cooked meat ham, bacon, sausage, etc. (optional)
- Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and add the milk or cream if desired. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and frothy.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add any fillings (cheese, vegetables, or cooked meat) and mix well.
- Spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Pour the egg mixture into a small, non-stick pan or bowl that fits inside your air fryer basket.
- Place the pan in the air fryer and cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
- Check for doneness by gently pressing on the omelette. It should be lightly golden on top and cooked through.
- Carefully remove the omelette from the air fryer, serve hot, and enjoy!
Notes
- For a fluffier texture, whisk the eggs well before cooking to incorporate air into the mixture.
- Feel free to experiment with different fillings, such as mushrooms, tomatoes, or a variety of cheeses.
- Use silicone-tipped tongs or a spatula to carefully remove the omelette from the pan to avoid breaking.
- If your omelette is browning too much but is still runny, cook it for a few more minutes at a lower temperature until fully set.
- For a lower-calorie version, skip the cheese and use veggies for extra flavor and nutrients.
