Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 frittatas
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup cooked sausage, crumbled
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure that your frittatas cook evenly and thoroughly.
- In a large mixing bowl, crack the 6 large eggs and add 1/2 cup of milk. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
- Add salt and pepper to taste. Remember, the sausage and cheese will also add some saltiness, so adjust accordingly.
- Fold in the 1 cup of cooked sausage, crumbled, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the egg mixture.
- Next, add in 1/2 cup of shredded cheese and 1/2 cup of diced bell peppers. Mix gently until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Prepare a muffin tin by greasing it lightly with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full to allow for rising.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the frittatas are set in the center and lightly golden on top.
- Once cooked, remove the muffin tin from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Carefully run a knife around the edges of each frittata to loosen them, then gently lift them out of the muffin tin.
- Serve warm, either on their own or with a side of fresh salad or toast. Enjoy your delicious Individual Sausage Cheese and Veggie Frittatas!
Tips
- • For the best texture, avoid overmixing the egg mixture - gentle folding keeps the frittatas light and fluffy. • Use pre-cooked sausage to ensure food safety and save time during preparation. • Experiment with different cheese varieties like cheddar, mozzarella, or pepper jack to customize the flavor. • Don't fill the muffin cups completely - leave about 1/4 inch at the top to allow for rising during baking. • These frittatas can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Simply reheat in the microwave for a quick breakfast. • For a healthier version, try using turkey sausage or adding more vegetables like spinach or mushrooms. • Use a non-stick muffin tin or generously grease your pan to ensure easy removal.
