Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.25 cup ham
- 0.5 medium apple
- 0.25 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon green onion (optional)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk the mixture until well combined and slightly frothy.
Dice the ham into small bite-sized pieces and grate the cheddar cheese. Cut the apple into thin slices or small chunks (peeling is optional). Finely chop the green onion if using.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter, ensuring it coats the entire surface of the pan.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, until the edges start to set.
Sprinkle the diced ham, apple pieces, and cheddar cheese evenly over one half of the omelet. Add green onion if desired.
Using a spatula, gently fold the other half of the omelet over the filling. Press down lightly to seal.
Continue cooking for another 1 to 2 minutes, or until the cheese has melted, and the omelet is cooked through but still tender.
Carefully slide the omelet onto a plate, cut into sections if desired, and serve immediately.
