This Keto Three Cheese Omelette came out DELICIOUS. So easy to make. You'll definitely want to make it again and again.
It's such a nice change from standard scrambled eggs.
This omelette is soft and fluffy and cooked just the perfect amount. The three cheeses are melty and gooey…
Top it all off with some chopped chives or green onions and you'll look like a master chef making this recipe.
Tips For Making A Keto Three Cheese Omelette
- When cooking your three cheese omelette, low temperatures are always preferred so you end up with a soft and moist omelette and no dry crispy edges (unless of course that's how you prefer it)
- You can use more cheese than listed below, I just use less to keep the overall calories down for myself personally!
- Feel free to get creative and add spices to this omelette. This is just a nice starting base.
Tools I Used To Make A Keto Three Cheese Omelette
- Low Carb Substitution Guide – This is totally optional but if you like my recipes, I now have a $5 guide available with all of the substitutions I use to create every recipe on my site. You can use this to convert old traditional recipes and create new keto recipes! You can purchase it here and/or read more if you are interested. 🙂 I appreciate your support so much guys!
- Nutritional Food Scale – AKA my best friend. This little buddy has been with me for over 4 years and never fails. Perfect measurements and only needs the batteries replaced maybe once a year! This makes measuring cheese super easy for this recipe!
Keto Three Cheese Omelette
Serves: 1
Ingredients:
- 1 tsp butter
- 3 eggs
- 1 tsp cream or milk
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1-2 tbsp shredded gouda cheese, 10g
- 1-2 tbsp shredded cheddar cheese, 10g
- 1-2 tbsp shredded havarti cheese (use jalapeño havarti for a bit of spice), 10g
- chopped chives or green onion for topping
Directions:
- In a medium frying pan, heat butter over medium heat until completely melted.
- Meanwhile, beat together 3 eggs with the cream or milk and salt and pepper until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture into the pan (you want the pan warmed and the butter melted but not completely hot yet).
- Cover the eggs and let them cook on low-medium heat until the top JUST starts to set (slow and steady is always best for this so you don't end up crisping your bottom).
- Sprinkle your shredded cheese over the almost cooked through eggs then cover the pan again and remove it from the heat completely. Let the cheese melt and eggs finish cooking off the heat.
- Now once your cheese is melted, using a spatula you can fold one half of the omelette gently over the other.
- To plate, you can either flip it out onto a plate OR what I do is use two spatulas to lift the omelette out and place it gently on a plate.
- Top with your chives or chopped green onion and enjoy!
