Step by Step Method
Step 1
N a small bowl whisk together eggs, baking powder, cream, green onions, salt and pepper until frothy.
Step 2
Heat an 8-inch skillet over medium heat until your hands feel warm when held about 2-inches above the surface; add in butter and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan evenly.

Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet; let set slightly.

Step 7
Using the same spatula, gently fold the omelet over the cheese.
