Ingredients
- 6 large eggs

- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
Step 2
Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk until thoroughly combined.
Step 3
Add milk, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper to the eggs and whisk again until smooth.
Step 4
Melt the butter in the prepared baking dish by placing it in the preheated oven for 1-2 minutes. Swirl the dish to coat the bottom evenly with the melted butter.
Step 5
Pour the egg mixture into the baking dish and sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the top.
Step 6
Bake the omelet in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and lightly golden on top.
Step 7
Remove the omelet from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. The eggs will continue to firm up during this time.
Step 8
Sprinkle the chopped chives over the top for garnish before slicing and serving.
Step 9
Cut into squares or wedges and enjoy your Baked Swiss Cheese Omelet warm!
