You might not think a sweet omelette would work, but I promise you, this is the most delicious breakfast! If you’re struggling to imagine this dish, think sweet soufflé, but made in a pan. It’s fluffy, light and delicious.
Throughout this year, I’m working with British Lion Eggs to create a series of #EggCentric recipes: healthy egg-based recipes that are fresh, tasty and quick to prepare – perfect for busy family life. Every recipe in the series uses only store cupboard ingredients, or items commonly found in a family fridge.
So let’s get started with this awesome sweet breakfast omelette.
Ingredients
For the omelette:
- 2 medium British Lion eggs
- 2 tbsp plain or sweet yoghurt (I used vanilla)
- 1 tbsp caster sugar
- 1 tsp butter
For the toppings:
- 4 tbsp plain or sweet yoghurt
- A handful of granola
- A handful of blueberries
- 2 tsp honey
Instructions
Separate the egg whites and yolks into two bowls.
Beat the eggs whites to soft peaks.
Beat the yolks together with the yoghurt and sugar.
Pour the yolk mixture into the whites and fold through gently until combined.
Heat the butter in a frying pan over a medium heat.
Pour the mix into the pan, level off gently and cook until it is golden underneath and set on top.
Fold carefully in half and continue to cook for a couple more minutes.
Cut in half and serve to plates. Top with yoghurt, granola and fruits to taste, plus a drizzle of honey.
Yummy, fluffy, sweet, delicious. You’re going to love it! Which toppings would you go for?

That looks amazing! I’ve never thought about making sweet omelette but actually, I don’t see why! i mean eggs are quite neutral so technically you can add whatever you want to it.
I’ll definitely try it.

Kelly | Maverick Baking says
This is such a good idea! Though I must say I can see myself smothering it in Nutella, haha! Does it taste kind of pancake-like?
Emily Leary says
Hi! Oh yes, Nutella would work great. It’s not pancake like, more like a sweet soufflé.
