Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup grated cheese (e.g., Gruyere or cheddar)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Separate the egg whites and yolks into two clean, dry bowls.
Add the whole milk, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the egg yolks. Whisk until well combined.
Using a hand or stand mixer, beat the egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form. This usually takes about 3-4 minutes.
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the egg yolk mixture in thirds, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
Heat an oven-safe, non-stick skillet (approximately 8 inches) over medium heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt, swirling to coat the bottom and sides of the pan.
Pour the soufflé mixture into the skillet, spreading it out evenly. Cook on the stovetop for 1-2 minutes to set the bottom slightly.
Sprinkle the grated cheese and chopped chives over the top of the mixture.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the soufflé is puffed up and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy the fluffy, delicate texture of your Mile High Omelette Soufflé!
