A few tools that make a big difference:

✅ Goat cheese crumbles – because they instantly make any frittata feel fancy
Alright — let’s get into it.
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- ½ cup milk or cream
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)
- 2 cups cooked vegetables, chopped small
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- Optional: cooked bacon or sausage, diced ham, fresh herbs
Tip: If you’re using watery vegetables like zucchini, mushrooms, spinach, or tomatoes, sauté them first to cook off the moisture. This keeps your muffins fluffy instead of soggy.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 190°C / 375°F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or silicone muffin cups (even silicone benefits from a quick oil spray).
- Divide your cooked vegetables evenly among the muffin cups.
- Sprinkle the cheese over the vegetables.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about ¾ full.
- Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the centers are just set and the tops are lightly golden.
- Cool for 5 minutes before removing from the tin.
Storage & Reheating
- Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- Freezer: Wrap individually in parchment or plastic wrap, then store in a freezer bag for up to 2 months.
- Reheat: Microwave for 30–45 seconds or warm in the oven at 180°C / 350°F for 8–10 minutes.
