This Christmas Morning Slow Cooker Omelet is perfect for those of you who don’t want to spend your fun Christmas morning in the kitchen. You can make this omelet ahead with eggs, almond milk, bell pepper, onions, ham and cheese.
Today’s recipe is sponsored by Egg Farmers of Canada, which happens to produce one of the freshest and the best quality eggs in the world. It sounds like I’m exaggerating, but literally, the eggs travel from the farms to your kitchen in less than 5 days. On top of that, when you buy Canadian Grade A Eggs you are supporting over 1,000 farming families in Canada.
If you read my blog often you know that I love eggs and I always have some in the fridge. I can’t start my day without eggs and oatmeal. I’m not even kidding!! So, as you can imagine my Christmas morning will have eggs… lots of eggs!! I called this recipe Christmas Morning Slow Cooker Omelet because you can make this recipe the night before and have more time to enjoy your family and the Christmas morning unwrapping gifts under the tree instead of being in the kitchen cooking.
This recipe is ultra-easy to make, wholesome, and delicious. I am sure you and your family will enjoy waking up in the morning knowing that breakfast is actually ready to eat. I bet you already have all the ingredients necessary to make it. This recipe uses several eggs, almond milk (or any other milk of your preference), bell peppers, onions, chopped ham, and mozzarella cheese. Also before serving you can garnish it with fresh parsley and fresh cherry tomatoes. Yummy!

Olivia this looks SO good!! What kind of ham did you use and could I make this with egg whites? If so would it change the cooking time? Thanks
I used smoked ham steak from Maple leaf brand, but really you can use any ham you have on hand. I’ve never made this recipe with only egg whites, but I think it would work just fine with only egg whites. If you try to make it only with egg whites I would suggest you to cook on HIGH for 1.5 hours and start checking at 1 hour. Hope you enjoy this recipe 😉
I haven’t tried it yet, but I’m wondering if I have to use almond milk? Can I use regular milk, 2%? Thanks so much, I can’t wait to try this.
Yes you can 😉
Looking forward to making this! Just confused. The top of the recipe says total cooking time is 1h40, while the recipe states 2.5hrs cooking on high.
“PREP TIME:10 MINSCOOK TIME:1 HR 30 MINSTOTAL TIME:1 HR 40 MINS”
“Cover and cook on high for 2.5 hours.”
Which one? Thank you!!! Looks so delicious
It’s 2.5 hours. I just fixed it for you on the recipe box. Thanks for pointing it out 😉
What if I want to do this as an overnight cook? How long and on what setting would work? If it’s possible I mean.
Cook on low for 4.5 hours.
Can’t taste going to try will try come back and rate it. Looks good
