We don’t see many sweet omelets, but they really do
make sense, like other desserty breakfasts-think of it
as an easy souffle. Serve hot or at room temperature,
sprinkled with powdered sugar and a selection of marmalades and jams, or macerated fruit,
and whipped cream, creme fraiche, sour cream, or
yogurt.
4 eggs, separated
1/2 cup milk or cream
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Pinch salt
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons butter
How to make
Baked Sweet Omelet
Heat the oven to 350 F. Beat the egg yolks with
the milk, flour, salt, and sugar. Beat the whites until stiff
but not dry.
Put a large ovenproof skillet, preferably nonstick,
over medium heat and add the butter. When it melts,
gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture. Pour
into the skillet and cook for 2 minutes, then transfer to
the oven. Bake until puffy and browned on top, 10 to 20 minutes.
