Baked Omelet Roll

We love a good hot breakfast at our house.  Trouble is, we get up at 5:15 on weekdays and I don’t really want to get up any earlier to get a hot breakfast on the table.  I was searching on the web the other day and found a baked omelet recipe on Allrecipes which was submitted in 2006.

I tried it out and it is wonderful.  We have had it 3 times already.  I prep what I am putting in it the night before (like chopped onions, peppers etc.).  All you do is mix some eggs, flour and milk together and let it bake, which happens to be the key to the ease of it.  While it is baking I can go ahead and get ready for the morning.

Give it a try sometime and you will see how easy it is.  Hope it helps bring back a hot breakfast to your table on busy mornings like it did to ours.

Baked Omelet Roll

Recipe Adapted from Allrecipes

6  eggs

1  cup milk

½  cup flour

½  teaspoon salt

½  teaspoon pepper

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese – I use whatever I have on hand

2 cups chopped veggies and/or meat of choice

Hot Sauce like Tabasco if you like

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.  Grease a 9 X 13 dish.  In a blender (or place in a bowl and use an immersion blender), combine the eggs, milk, flour, salt, pepper and hot sauce (optional).  Cover and process until smooth.  Pour into prepared dish. 

Either bake plain or at this point spread the 2 cups of chopped ingredients over the top of the egg mixture.

Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 15 minutes   The egg will puff up and rise above the dish – don’t worry!  When set, take out of oven and sprinkle the cup of cheese over the omelet.  Fold any of the omelet which has puffed up back into the pan.

Loosen the edges of the omelet from the pan.  Start rolling up from the long side.

You should be able to roll 2 times for sure and maybe 3 (depending on the amount of ingredients you added).  Roll onto serving platter.

Cut into 4 pieces.  Top with any of the following – salsa, more cheese, sour cream, yogurt, fresh chopped veggies or whatever trips your trigger!

Happy omelet eating!
