It’s a combination of eggs, cheese, and other fillings typically thought of as folded over.

You can have any fillings in an omelet; there can range from vegetables to meat. And some cream is typically added to the eggs to make them fluff up.

Every culture has one; the most popular ones are from China, called Egg Foo Yung.

Here is How To Make Air Fryer Cheese Omelet

Start by mixing in a small bowl the eggs, cream, salt, and pepper. Mix with your whisk until they are nice and frothy.

Then pour into a non-stick pan, place the pan into the air fryer for 4 minutes at 350 degrees F, air fryer setting. When the time is up, sprinkle your cheese on top, cook for another 4 minutes at 350 degrees F, air fryer setting.

Some Pro Tips:

• Use a pan that is small enough to fit into your air fryer. Check before adding the ingredients. 
• Add more cheese after the eggs are cooked. The air fryer will perfectly melt the cheese.
• Do not overfill your omelets; it’s best to have a perfectly cooked omelet than one with too much filling.
