Categories     Eggs

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 14

PLAN/PURCHASE
1 tsp sweet butter, unsalted, softened
2 - 3 Tbsp picante sauce, or salsa
1 oz shredded cheese, your choice
2 large eggs
2 Tbsp heavy cream
1 tsp lemon juice, freshly squeezed
salt, kosher variety, fine grind, to taste
black pepper, freshly ground, to taste
OPTIONAL ITEMS
sliced tomatoes, for garnish
hot sauce, at the table
buttered toast, with jam
ground sausage, ham, or diced bacon

Steps:

  • 1. PREP/PREPARE
  • 2. You will need an ovenproof dish that is capable of holding all of the ingredients. I am using a ramekin that holds 8 ounces (225g).
  • 3. Shredded Cheese In my opinion, choose a cheese that make you happy. How about some pepper jack, sharp cheddar, or monterey. Heavy Cream I think heavy cream gives this recipe rich flavor; however, you could always use some milk, or even an equal amount of sour cream. I have not tried it with buttermilk, but that might be interesting. Picante sauce is my first choice; however, a good salsa is an excellent stand in. You might even try some freshly chopped tomatoes.
  • 4. If you are tossing in some sausage, ham, or bacon, add it after you drop in the cheese, but before pouring in the egg mixture.
  • 5. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
  • 6. Place a rack in the middle position and preheat the oven to 375f (190c).
  • 7. Brush or wipe the softened butter on bottom and sides of your ovenproof dish.
  • 8. Add the picante sauce (or whatever sauce you are using) evenly on the bottom of the dish.
  • 9. Add the cheese in an even layer.
  • 10. If you are using breakfast sausage, or other items, add them now.
  • 11. Add the eggs, cream, and lemon juice to a small mini prep, then sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper.
  • 12. Blend until completely smooth, and a bit foamy, then add to the dish.
  • 13. I add a few drops of hot sauce to the blender with the eggs. I think it adds another nice flavor to the whole dish.
  • 14. Place in the preheated oven, and back until the eggs are set, about 22 to 27 minutes.
  • 15. PLATE/PRESENT
  • 16. Let sit for a few minutes, and serve with buttered toast a bit of jam, and some coffee or tea. Enjoy.
  • 17. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of fillings: Don't be afraid to experiment with different fillings for your cheesy baked omelet. Some popular options include diced ham, crumbled bacon, sautéed vegetables, and shredded cheese. You can also add herbs and spices to taste.
  • Cook the omelet slowly: The key to a perfectly cooked omelet is to cook it slowly over low heat. This will help to ensure that the eggs cook evenly throughout and that the cheese has time to melt and become gooey.
  • Don't overcook the omelet: It's important to keep an eye on the omelet as it cooks, as it can easily overcook. The omelet is done when the eggs are set and the cheese is melted, but the eggs should still be slightly soft and fluffy.
  • Serve the omelet immediately: A cheesy baked omelet is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the omelet is hot and fluffy, and the cheese is still gooey.

Conclusion:

A cheesy baked omelet is a delicious and versatile breakfast option that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. Whether you like your omelet with ham and cheese, or with vegetables and feta, there's a cheesy baked omelet recipe out there for everyone.
