Zesty Apple Omelet

From the Kitchen of: Kathleen

Cook the sausage until fully done, drain, split and set aside.
Peel, core and slice the apples in wedges. Combine sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan. Stir in water and lemon juice and cook over medium heat until apples are almost tender.
Seperate the egg yolks and whites. Beat the yolks until lemon yellow and fluffy. In a seperate bowl, beat the egg whites until very stiff, then fold into the beaten yolks.
Melt the butter (or margarine) in a 10" oven proof frying pan (cast iron is best) heated to very hot. Pour in the egg mixture and cook over medium heat until the eggs begin to set (about 8 minutes).
Pour the cooked apples evenly over one side of the eggs,add the sausages and then fold over.
Bake at 325 degrees in preheated oven for another 8 to 10 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the middle of the omelet comes out clean.
Serves 4.
For 6 to 8 people, simply cook two omelets at the same time.
