Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 eggs
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup button mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until smooth. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil and butter in an oven-safe skillet (8-10 inches in diameter) over medium heat.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown and softened.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds, just until fragrant.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the mushrooms in the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure even distribution.
Sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the egg mixture.
Cook on the stovetop over medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes, until the edges of the frittata begin to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is slightly golden.
Remove the frittata from the oven and allow it to cool for 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle with chopped green onions, then slice into wedges and serve warm.
