Air Fryer Omelette.

Making an omelette in an air fryer is not only quick and easy but also produces a delicious result with a fluffy texture. Here’s a simple recipe along with some notes to ensure success:

Ingredients:

  • 2-3 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup diced vegetables (bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, spinach, etc.)
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooking spray or a little butter for greasing (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Air Fryer:
    • Preheat your air fryer to 360°F (180°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
  2. Prepare the Eggs:
    • In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together until well beaten.
    • Season the eggs with salt and pepper according to your taste.
  3. Add Fillings:
    • Add the diced vegetables and shredded cheese to the beaten eggs. Mix well to combine.
    • You can customize your omelette by adding any other ingredients you like, such as cooked ham, bacon, or herbs.
  4. Grease the Air Fryer Basket:
    • Lightly grease the air fryer basket or tray with cooking spray or a little butter to prevent sticking.
  5. Pour the Mixture:
    • Pour the egg mixture into the preheated air fryer basket. Spread it evenly with a spatula.
  6. Cook the Omelette:
    • Cook the omelette in the air fryer at 360°F (180°C) for about 5-7 minutes.
    • Check the omelette after 5 minutes. It should be puffed up and slightly golden on top. If it needs more time, cook for another 1-2 minutes.
  7. Serve:
    • Once cooked, carefully remove the omelette from the air fryer using a spatula.
    • Fold the omelette in half and transfer it to a plate.
    • Serve hot with toast, a side salad, or your favorite toppings.

Notes:

  • Size of the Omelette: The size of your air fryer will determine the size of the omelette you can make. You may need to adjust the quantities of ingredients accordingly.
  • Preheating: Preheating the air fryer ensures that your omelette starts cooking immediately, resulting in a better texture.
  • Greasing the Basket: This step is crucial to prevent the omelette from sticking to the basket.
  • Check for Doneness: Cooking times may vary depending on the model and size of your air fryer. Check the omelette halfway through cooking to avoid overcooking.
  • Customization: Feel free to customize your omelette with your favorite ingredients. Just ensure they are diced or chopped finely for even cooking.
  • Cleaning: Remember to clean the air fryer basket after each use to prevent residue buildup.

Enjoy your air fryer omelette! It’s a quick, healthy, and delicious breakfast option.
