Recipe: Baked Omelette with Sausage and Vegetables
Omelettes can be tricky to master on the stovetop, so why not make a perfect one in the oven.
Ingredients
- 1 kg. mild breakfast sausage
- 1 green pepper seeded and chopped
- 1 Red bell pepper seeded and chopped
- ¼ cup heavy whipped cream
- 6 eggs
- ½ teaspoon salt and pepper each
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
- Green onions garnish
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400F.
-
Brown the sausage in a large ovenproof skillet and drain. In the same skillet, sauté the chopped peppers until softened, about 3 minutes. Reserve the golden sausages and vegetables on a plate.
-
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs.
-
In a stand mixer or with a whisk on a hand mixer, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Then add the whipped cream to the beaten eggs.
-
To the greased skillet used to cook the sausages and vegetables, add the egg-cream combo and cook/let sit over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes. Next, sprinkle about half of the grated cheese on top of the egg, then transfer to the oven.
-
Bake the omelet in the oven at 400F for 6-8 minutes, or until the eggs in the center are set. The cooking time varies depending on the size of the pan and the thickness of the eggs.
-
Once the eggs are cooked, carefully remove the pan from the oven. It will be hot.
-
Spread sausage and vegetables on top of baked egg omelette, then sprinkle with remaining cheese.
-
Gently loosen the egg from the pan and fold it over like an omelet. Cut into “wedges” or chunks and serve. Garnish with green onion slices. Enjoy!
