What You Need
For exact ingredient quantities and condensed instructions, see the recipe card at the bottom of this post.
To make this air fryer omelette you’ll need eggs, courgette, cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, garlic powder, mixed herbs and a little olive oil spray.
You’ll also need a small ovenproof tin that fits inside your air fryer basket.
How To Make It
Start by preheating your air fryer and lightly greasing a small baking tin with olive oil spray.
Beat the eggs in a bowl before stirring in the chopped courgette, tomatoes, herbs, garlic powder and mozzarella.
Pour the mixture into the prepared tin, making sure the vegetables are evenly distributed throughout.
Cook in the air fryer until the eggs are set and the top is lightly golden. The exact cooking time can vary slightly depending on your air fryer model, so it’s worth checking towards the end of the cooking time.
Once cooked, carefully remove the tin from the air fryer and allow it to rest for a minute before serving.
Variations
This recipe is easy to adapt depending on what you have available.
- Swap the mozzarella for feta cheese for a more traditional Mediterranean flavour.
- Use sun-dried tomatoes instead of fresh tomatoes for a richer taste.
- Add some spinach, olives or roasted peppers.
- Sprinkle over some chilli flakes for extra heat.
- Serve with a simple salad for a more substantial meal.
Storage
Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
This omelette can be eaten cold, making it ideal for lunchboxes or meal prep. To reheat, place it back in the air fryer for a few minutes until warmed through.
