Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 5 cups fresh spinach
- 0.25 cups coconut milk (unsweetened, full-fat)
- 1 small onion (finely diced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast (optional, for a cheesy flavor)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk, sea salt, ground black pepper, and nutritional yeast (if using). Set aside.
Heat the coconut oil in an oven-safe skillet (such as a cast-iron skillet) over medium heat.
Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet in batches, stirring until wilted. This will take 2-3 minutes.
Spread the spinach mixture evenly across the skillet and reduce the heat to low.
Pour the egg mixture over the spinach, ensuring it covers the vegetables evenly.
Cook on the stovetop for 2-3 minutes, just until the edges of the frittata begin to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the center is fully set and the top is lightly golden.
Remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into wedges.
Serve warm and enjoy your Paleo Spinach Frittata!
