Optional Ingredients
- diced tomatoes, cooked ham, herbs Fresh herbs like chives or parsley brighten it up.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the air fryer to 270°F (130°C). This is the perfect temperature for cooking the eggs gently without drying them out.
- In a bowl, crack the eggs, add the milk, and season with salt and pepper. Whisk until frothy and well combined.
- Stir in the diced bell peppers and onions. Feel free to add any other vegetables or leftovers.
- Grab a small, air-fryer-safe dish and grease it lightly. Pour your egg mixture into that dish.
- Top your egg mixture with shredded cheese and any other toppings you like.
Cooking
- Place the dish in the preheated air fryer and cook for about 10-12 minutes, checking for doneness.
- Gently shake the dish after 10 minutes to see if the center is set. If it jiggles too much, cook for a couple more minutes.
Serving
- Carefully take the dish out of the air fryer and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
- Gently fold your omelette and serve warm, optionally topped with sour cream or salsa.
Notes
For perfect results, use fresh eggs, avoid overcrowding the dish, and consider briefly broiling for a crispier top. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheat carefully.
