Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup (diced) Zucchini
- 0.5 cup (diced) Red bell pepper
- 1 cup (chopped) Spinach
- 0.5 cup (shredded) Cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 clove (minced) Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
In a medium skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the diced zucchini, diced red bell pepper, and chopped spinach to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until the vegetables are softened. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Fold the cooked vegetables and shredded cheddar cheese into the egg mixture.
Evenly pour the mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the frittata muffins are set and slightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool for 5 minutes in the tin before carefully removing them.
Serve warm, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds before serving.
