Ingredients
  

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk any type
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder optional
  • 1/4 cup diced bell peppers red, yellow, or green
  • 1/4 cup diced onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped spinach or kale
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice
  • 2 tablespoons cooked bacon or ham diced (optional)
  • Cooking spray or a small amount of oil for greasing

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the air fryer: Turn your air fryer on to 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes to ensure even cooking. While it preheats, you can prepare your omelet mixture.
  • Prepare the egg mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until fully combined. Whisking well ensures your mini omelets will be fluffy and light.
  • Add vegetables and protein: Stir in the diced bell peppers, onions, chopped greens, shredded cheese, and cooked bacon or ham if using. Make sure the ingredients are evenly distributed so every mini omelet has a balanced flavor and texture.
  • Grease your molds: Lightly spray silicone muffin cups or small oven-safe ramekins with cooking spray or brush with a little oil. This prevents sticking and makes removal easier after cooking.
  • Fill the molds: Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared cups, filling each about 3/4 full to allow room for the eggs to puff up while cooking.
  • Air fry the mini omelets: Place the filled molds into the air fryer basket. Cook at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and lightly golden on top. You can check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center—it should come out clean.
  • Cool and remove: Carefully remove the molds from the air fryer and let the mini omelets cool for a minute or two. Gently run a small spatula or knife around the edges to release them.
  • Serve and enjoy: Transfer the mini omelets to a plate and serve immediately. They pair beautifully with fresh fruit, toast, or a light side salad for a complete breakfast. For added flair, sprinkle a little fresh parsley or chives on top.
