Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
- 18 eggs (beaten)
- 8 ounces sour cream
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 cup green pepper (chopped)
- 1/4 cup onion (chopped)
- 13.25 ounce can of mushrooms (drained)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (divided)
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 325º Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the omelette evenly.
- Prepare the pan: Brush melted butter on the sides and bottom of a 9×13 inch baking pan to prevent sticking and add flavor.
- Mix ingredients: In a large bowl, thoroughly mix the beaten eggs, sour cream, milk, salt, pepper, chopped green pepper, chopped onion, drained mushrooms, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese until well combined.
- Pour into pan: Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Add cheese topping: Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top of the mixture to create a cheesy crust as it bakes.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the omelette is set and the top is golden brown.
- Serve: Remove from oven, let cool slightly, then cut into squares for serving.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use whole milk and full-fat sour cream.
- You can customize by adding other vegetables like tomatoes or spinach.
- Let the omelette sit for a few minutes after baking to set further and make cutting easier.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the omelette into neat squares.
