My Sweet Omelette
Servings: 1 person
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp sweetener/sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon - don't have to use this but it tastes really good if you've got an extra sweet tooth like me
Optional Toppings: this is what I went for...
- 1 tbsp peanut butter
- 4 tbsp Alpro plain yoghurt
- 1/2 banana
- A few raspberries
- Handful of mixed nuts, warmed in a pan with a tsp of maple syrup
Instructions
- Separate the egg white and yolk into two bowls.
- Whisk the egg white until it forms soft peaks (takes approx 1 min with an electric whisk on full power). You’re looking for it to be white and frothy, and hold its shape a little when you whisk it, like my picture. Don’t worry too much about under/over doing it...it'll still be yummy regardless!!
- Add the sweetener, vanilla and cinnamon to the yolk and mix together.
- Pour the yolk into the white and whisk until combined (approx 15 seconds).
- Heat a frying pan to a medium temperature (mine is 7/9). Spray with frylight.
- Pour in the mix and tilt the pan around so it forms a large circle - like you would with a regular omelette or a gigantic pancake. If your egg white was extra fluffy, you might want to use a spatula to help you quickly spread the mixture around the pan.
- Leave to cook for approx 2-3 mins, or until bubbles have formed on the surface and it’s easy to lift from the pan.
- Flip and cook for another 1 min, until brown. If you’re feeling nervous about flipping it, stick it under the grill to cook the top instead.
- Add your toppings, fold over & eat!
Notes
Tip - if you’re adding peanut butter to the top, warm it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds so it goes runny and you can pour it all over the omelette.
