Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Leftover pizza slices
- 6 large Eggs
- 0.25 cups Milk
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil or butter
- 2 tablespoons Fresh basil or parsley (optional, for garnish)
- 0.25 cups Cheese (optional, shredded)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Chop the leftover pizza slices into bite-sized pieces (about 1-inch squares).
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Heat the olive oil or butter in an oven-safe, non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the chopped pizza pieces to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes to warm them up and slightly crisp the crust.
Spread the pizza pieces evenly across the skillet, making sure every bite will have a bit of pizza.
Pour the egg mixture over the pizza pieces, ensuring that the eggs cover them evenly.
If desired, sprinkle additional shredded cheese on top for extra cheesiness.
Cook on the stovetop over medium-low heat for about 5-7 minutes, until the edges of the frittata start to set but the center is still slightly jiggly.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and golden brown on top.
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool for 5 minutes.
Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired, then slice into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your creative and delicious leftover pizza frittata!
