Ingredients

• 3 large eggs
• 0.5 teaspoon dried culinary lavender
• 2 ounces chèvre (goat cheese)
• 1 tablespoon whole milk or cream
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, lavender, milk or cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.

Step 2

Crumble the chèvre into small pieces and keep it ready for filling the omelet.

Step 3

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to fully melt and coat the pan.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread the eggs evenly. Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 1 minute, or until the edges begin to set.

Step 5

Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelet, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow underneath. Continue this process until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top.

Step 6

Sprinkle the crumbled chèvre evenly over one half of the omelet.

Step 7

Carefully fold the other half of the omelet over the chèvre to enclose the filling. Allow it to cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the cheese has softened and the omelet is fully set.

Step 8

Slide the omelet onto a plate and garnish with chopped fresh chives, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
