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 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!

What a great idea, it’s almost like having pudding for breakfast but without the guilt :-). Can’t wait to try it with strawberries and honey.
Yummy! We love sweet omelettes!
I love sweet omelettes, shame my boys don’t (more for me though ;)). I like to add some cocoa powder too, for truly indulgent chocolate-y breakfast
I love adding fruit to my eggs and love that combo! This looks really yummy!
Oh my gosh these sound delicious! I need to pin this!
What a fab recipe. I love the idea of adding yoghurt. Delicious!
I have never thought about making a sweet omelette, but this just looks too good not to try it out!
This looks tasty I have been trying to eat more omelettes too ;-)
I would have never thought of making something like this so now I have to try it!!
OOh now I absolutely love this idea and it looks just soooooo good x
I looooove omelettes, I usually have them for lunch though!
I’m not much of sweet person with things like pancakes and waffles so I don’t know how I feel about a sweet omelette but might have to give it a go x
This looks extremely tasty, makes me hungry!

Oh this sounds gorgeous – I don’t eat many omelettes as they often taste too ‘eggy’ but this I could go with :D
It looks lovely. I don’t eat sugar or carbs in the morning, but would have this in the afternoon :)
This sounds gorgeous – I love omelettes, can’t believe I’ve never thought of trying a sweet version! I’ll definitely be trying this :)
This sounds, and looks SO yummy!! Never thought of adding yogurt to an omelette before!
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.
This look delicious – I never thought of using Yogurt with an omelette. I’m so trying this out. xx
Mmmm! I love this recipe, Emily! I have never made a sweet omelet. This seems like the perfect weekend breakfast :) It kind of reminds me of a crepe!
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?
Hi! Oh yes, Nutella would work great. It’s not pancake like, more like a sweet soufflé.
