Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup diced bell peppers
- 1 cup diced onions
- 1 cup diced ham
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs thoroughly until well combined and slightly frothy. Add milk and continue whisking to create a smooth, uniform mixture.
- Season the egg mixture with salt and pepper, stirring to distribute the seasoning evenly.
- Spread the diced bell peppers, onions, and ham evenly across the prepared sheet pan, creating a uniform base layer.
- Carefully pour the seasoned egg mixture over the vegetable and ham layer, ensuring it covers the ingredients completely and reaches the edges of the pan.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly across the top of the egg mixture, covering the entire surface.
- Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted and lightly golden.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes to allow the omelette to set completely.
- Cut into squares and serve hot, garnishing with fresh herbs like chives or parsley if desired.
