Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized zucchini
- 6 large eggs
- 0.25 cup milk
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup parmesan cheese
- 2 stalks green onion
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon olive oil (for greasing pan)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil or line it with silicone or paper baking liners.
Grate the zucchini using a box grater, then place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible to prevent soggy frittatas.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy. Add the milk, shredded cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Finely chop the green onion and fresh parsley. Add them to the egg mixture along with the grated zucchini, stirring to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Using a spoon or a ladle, evenly divide the mixture among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the frittatas are puffed up and lightly golden on top. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
Remove the frittatas from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Carefully run a knife around the edges if needed, then remove from the tin.
Serve warm, at room temperature, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds before serving if desired.
