Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 cup shredded cheese (such as cheddar or feta)
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, chives, or basil)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup diced vegetables (such as bell peppers or spinach)
How to Make Savory Herb Frittata
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Stir in the chopped herbs, shredded cheese, and diced vegetables, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.
- Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Once hot, pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
- Cook for about 5 minutes, gently stirring the edges to allow the uncooked eggs to flow to the bottom.
- Once the edges are set, transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed and golden.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
- Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired, and serve warm.
Tips for the Best Results
- For a creamier texture, consider adding a dollop of sour cream or cream cheese into the egg mixture.
- Make sure your skillet is well-oiled to prevent sticking.
- Keep an eye on the frittata while baking; ovens can vary, and you want it set but not overcooked.
Easy Variations
- Swap out the cheese for goat cheese or mozzarella for a different flavor profile.
- Add cooked bacon or sausage for a heartier dish.
- Experiment with different herbs like dill or cilantro for a unique twist.
What to Serve With It
- A light green salad with a lemon vinaigrette.
- Fresh fruit platter for a sweet contrast.
- Toasted bread or croissants for a satisfying crunch.
- A simple yogurt parfait for a creamy addition.
