Puffy Omelet Recipe

This is close to a souffle.  The flour helps create a structure for the eggs so that they rise.

1/3 cup flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
dash pepper

1 1/2 cups milk
8 eggs

1 1/2 cup shredded cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients separately.  Make a well in the dry ingredients.

Add enough of the wet ingredients to form a paste.  Then *slowly* add the remaining ingredients until you have a smooth mixture.

Grease a 9 inch pie plate.  Pour the mixture into the pie pan.

Top the mixture with the cheese, then immediately place into oven.  Bake for 40-45 minutes until the omelet browns or it passes the knife test.
