🧂 Ingredients

• 3 large eggs
• 2 tbsp milk (or water for lighter texture)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• ¼ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
• ¼ cup diced vegetables (bell peppers, onions, spinach, or tomatoes)
• 1 tbsp cooked meat (optional – ham, bacon, or sausage)
• Non-stick spray or a little butter for greasing

👩‍🍳 How To Make Air Fryer Omelette

1. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set to 350°F (175°C) for 3 minutes.
2. Prepare the Mixture: In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth.
3. Add Fillings: Stir in cheese, veggies, and any meat of your choice.
4. Grease the Pan: Lightly spray or butter a heatproof dish that fits your air fryer basket.
5. Pour and Cook: Pour the egg mixture into the dish. Air fry for 8–10 minutes, checking around 8 minutes to ensure it’s set in the center.
6. Serve: Carefully remove and let cool slightly before slicing. Enjoy warm!

🧀 Topping Variations

• Cheese Lovers: Top with extra melted mozzarella or feta.

🔧 Pro Tips

• Whisk eggs thoroughly for a light texture.
• Add milk or cream for a rich and moist omelette.

❓ Recipe FAQs

Q: Can I make this omelette without milk?
Yes! Simply replace it with water or omit it for a denser texture.

Q: Can I cook the omelette directly in the basket?
Only if your air fryer basket is non-stick and deep enough — otherwise, use a dish or silicone mold.

Q: How do I know when it’s done?
The center should be set and not runny; insert a toothpick — it should come out clean.

Q: Can I meal prep these?
Absolutely! Pour the mixture into silicone muffin cups and air fry mini omelettes for grab-and-go breakfasts.
