Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, beat the eggs with a fork until fully combined, fluffy, and no streaks remain.

  2. In an 8-inch round nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter.

  3. Add the eggs to the skillet and cook, without stirring, until the edges just begin to set.

  4. With a silicone spatula, gently push the edges toward the center of the pan and tilt the pan so the uncooked eggs move to the edge.

  5. Repeat until the eggs are somewhat set but still a little soft in the center, about 5 minutes, making sure the underside isn't browning too much.

So good! I have tried making omelets so many times, and they never come out right. I tried your recipe and followed your directions completely, and it came out PERFECT!

Gregg Ackerman ★ 5.0/5

II love eating omelets - making them was a different story.. Following other sites directions either came out runny, without flavor, or like a brick. Your recipe is absolutely perfect.. I was doing so many things wrong, st least for what I like..
Thank you
