Ingredients
- 3tablespoons butter
- ½Granny Smith apple, peeled and sliced ¼-inch thick
- Pinch sugar
- 1small log of fresh goat cheese, about 4 ounces
- 2extra-large eggs
- 1tablespoon milk
- Coarsely ground black pepper
Preparation
- Step 1
Melt half the butter in a small nonstick saucepan or wok over medium heat. Add apple and cook until slices start to brown, then add sugar. Stir slices until nicely browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. Cut 3 slices of goat cheese, ½ inch thick.
- Step 2
Beat eggs and milk together, just until uniform; do not overbeat. Heat remaining butter in an omelet pan or small nonstick pan over high heat. When butter foams, add eggs and reduce heat to medium-low. When omelet is about half firm, carefully turn it over.
- Step 3
Arrange goat cheese on one half of omelet; cover cheese with apple slices. Fold omelet in half, turn off heat and leave for one minute. Place omelet on a warm plate, and sprinkle with black pepper. Serve immediately, with a witbier.

This is great. The goat cheese is so creamy with the apples that it's almost like a dessert. I did saute a shallot with the apple. This recipe with a pear would be nice too.
I doubled the recipe and caramelized a sliced shallot with the apple slices.
Instead of turning over the omelet, I just lifted up the edges, tilted the pan and let the uncooked egg run underneath.
Really liked this but please with only half the cheese. Added some shallots as someone had suggested. Made as 2 servings by adding an additional egg for the omelettes.
I used Bartlett pears soaked in rum first. Yum!
This is delicious! Suggestion - use 3 eggs, half a log of Goat Cheese, more apple
I’m not the biggest fan of goat cheese so I made this with sharp cheddar. Delicious! Will definitely make this again.
