Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 8 pieces pepperoni slices
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons pizza sauce
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 pieces fresh basil leaves (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter, ensuring the pan is evenly coated.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook undisturbed for about 1–2 minutes until the edges begin to set.
Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the omelet, allowing uncooked egg to flow to the bottom of the skillet.
Once the top of the omelet is mostly set but still slightly runny, spread the pizza sauce on one half of the omelet.
Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the pizza sauce, followed by the pepperoni slices and Italian seasoning.
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top of the pepperoni slices.
Carefully fold the omelet in half over the filling using a spatula. Press lightly to seal, ensuring the cheese melts evenly.
Cook for an additional 1–2 minutes, then slide the omelet onto a plate.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired and serve hot.
