Cook Time: 25 mins
Total Time: 40 mins
Cuisine: Italian
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 cup spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup bell pepper, diced
- 1/2 cup onion, diced
- 1 cup cheese, shredded
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Ensure the oven rack is positioned in the middle for even cooking.
- In a large mixing bowl, crack the 6 large eggs and whisk them thoroughly until the yolks and whites are completely combined and slightly frothy.
- Add the 1/4 cup of milk to the whisked eggs and continue to mix, creating a smooth and light egg mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat a 10-inch oven-safe non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a small amount of olive oil or butter to prevent sticking.
- Sauté the diced onions and bell peppers until they become soft and slightly translucent, approximately 3-4 minutes.
- Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the spinach wilts.
- Spread the vegetable mixture evenly across the bottom of the skillet.
- Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables, ensuring an even distribution.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top of the egg mixture.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittata is set and the top is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the frittata to set completely.
- Carefully slide the frittata onto a serving plate or cut and serve directly from the skillet.
- Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives if desired, and serve hot.
Tips
- Use Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor, opt for fresh spinach and high-quality cheese. Fresh veggies will enhance the overall taste of your frittata.
- Customize Your Veggies: Feel free to swap out the spinach, bell peppers, and onions for your favorite vegetables. Mushrooms, zucchini, or tomatoes can add a delightful twist!
- Don’t Rush the Cooking: Sauté the vegetables until they’re soft and slightly caramelized. This step adds depth to the flavor of the frittata.
- Check for Doneness: To ensure your frittata is perfectly cooked, gently shake the skillet. If the center is set and doesn’t jiggle, it’s ready to come out of the oven.
- Let It Rest: Allow the frittata to rest for a few minutes after baking. This makes it easier to slice and helps it hold its shape.
- Garnish for Extra Flavor: Add a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or chives before serving for an added burst of freshness and color.Enjoy your cooking adventure with this delightful frittata recipe!
