Pie Iron Omelets
Pie iron omelets are a delicious and easy camping breakfast option. Pie irons are metal cooking devices with long handles that you can use to cook food over an open flame. Here’s a simple recipe to make omelets using a pie iron:
Ingredients:
- Eggs
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Fillings of your choice (such as diced vegetables, cooked meats, cheese, etc.)
- Cooking spray or butter
Instructions:
- Start by preheating your pie iron over a campfire or grill until it’s hot.
- While the pie iron is heating up, crack one or two eggs (depending on the size of your pie iron and how many omelets you want to make) into a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, and whisk until well combined.
- Once the pie iron is hot, open it and lightly grease both sides with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Pour the beaten eggs into one half of the pie iron. Be careful not to overfill, as the eggs will expand as they cook.
- Add your desired fillings on top of the eggs. You can use a variety of ingredients such as diced vegetables, cooked meats, cheese, etc. Be mindful not to overfill the pie iron to ensure it closes properly.
- Close the pie iron and latch it securely.
- Cook the omelet over the campfire or grill, flipping the pie iron occasionally to ensure even cooking. Cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side, or until the eggs are fully set and cooked through.
- Once the omelet is cooked to your liking, carefully open the pie iron and remove the omelet using a spatula.
- Serve hot and enjoy your delicious pie iron omelet!
