Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
- 0.25 cup fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
- 2 leaves mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add granulated sugar and vanilla extract. Whisk well until the mixture is smooth, frothy, and pale yellow.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the unsalted butter. Let the butter melt completely and swirl it around to coat the skillet evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and gently tilt the pan to spread it evenly. Let it cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is still slightly soft.
Carefully slide a spatula under the omelet to check if the bottom is golden brown. If so, reduce the heat to low.
Spread the sour cream evenly over one half of the omelet, leaving a small border around the edge.
Using the spatula, gently fold the omelet in half to cover the sour cream filling.
Let the omelet cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to warm the sour cream, but avoid overcooking as the omelet should remain tender.
Carefully transfer the omelet to a serving plate. Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh berries and mint leaves, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful dessert omelet while it’s warm.
