Ingredients

• 3 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh chives
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a small bowl and add the unsweetened almond milk, salt, and pepper.

Step 2

Gently beat the mixture with a fork until the yolks and whites are well combined, and everything is a uniform color. Avoid over-beating as it introduces air bubbles.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until it is warm and begins to shine, but not smoking.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it sit undisturbed for about 15 seconds until the edges just begin to set.

Step 5

Using a rubber spatula, gently stir the eggs from the edges towards the center while maintaining the round shape of the omelette.

Step 6

Once the egg mixture is mostly set but still slightly runny on top, tilt the pan to fill in empty spaces with the remaining uncooked egg.

Step 7

Once the omelette has reached your desired doneness, sprinkle the fresh chives over half of the omelette.

Step 8

With the spatula, gently fold the omelette in half and allow it to sit in the pan for a few more seconds to finish cooking.

Step 9

Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately.
