Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
  • 1 small sweet apple, peeled and sliced

  • 3 extra large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • fresh ground pepper, to taste
  • 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 ounces good quality blue cheese

Directions

  1. 1
    Toast the walnuts in a preheated 300-degree oven for 15 minutes; set aside.

    In a heavy skillet over medium heat, saute the apple slices in 2 tablespoons of butter until they begin to brown.

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, salt, pepper and cinnamon.
  5. 5
    Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a pan over medium-high heat.
  6. 6
    When butter begins to foam, tilt pan to cover entire surface.
  7. 7
    Quickly pour in the egg mixture and lift the edges of the omelet with a fork the moment the omelet begins to set, tilting the pan to allow the liquid egg to run under the omelet.
  8. 8
    Work all the way around the pan, tilting in all directions to ensure an even thickness.
  9. 9
    When only a little liquid egg remains on the surface of the omelet, distribute the cheese in a line down the center of the omelet.

    Top the cheese with the walnuts and apples.

    Using the fork, flip one-half of the omelet over the filling and slide the omelet out of the pan onto a warm plate.

    Allow the omelet to rest for about 2 minutes for the cheese to melt and the flavors to blend.
