Print Recipe

Quick and easy mini frittatas baked in a muffin tin, perfect for meal prep and grab-and-go breakfasts or snacks. Made with eggs, veggies, cheese, and optional meat, these bites are flavorful and fuss-free.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk, whole or 2%
  • 1 cup (100 g) shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or blend)
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups diced vegetables (bell peppers, spinach, cherry tomatoes, zucchini, fresh or thawed frozen)
  • 1/2 cup (75 g) cooked bacon or sausage, optional
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (parsley, chives, basil), optional
  • Olive oil or cooking spray for greasing muffin tin

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Set a timer for 20 minutes.
  2. Grease the mini muffin tin with olive oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs and 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk until uniform and slightly frothy, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Season the egg mixture with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Optionally add a pinch of smoked paprika or garlic powder.
  5. Chop 1 to 1 1/2 cups of vegetables into small pieces. If using cooked meat, crumble or dice it.
  6. Fold in 1 cup (100 g) shredded cheese, vegetables, and optional meat into the egg mixture. Stir gently until evenly distributed.
  7. Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full to allow room for rising.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes until the frittatas puff up and turn light golden brown. Test doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean.
  9. Let the frittatas cool in the tin for 5 minutes before removing.
  10. Serve warm or cool completely before storing in the refrigerator or freezer.

Notes

Use cage-free eggs for best flavor. For dairy-free, substitute milk with almond or oat milk and use dairy-free cheese. To avoid watery frittatas, drain excess moisture from veggies. Do not overfill muffin cups to prevent spillage. Whisk eggs vigorously for fluffier texture. Grease muffin tin well to prevent sticking.
