Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 2 cups broccoli (1 medium bunch), steamed and cut into small pieces (see note)
- 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1-2 green onions, sliced
- salt & freshly ground black pepper
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or fill with baking cups.
-
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs together. Add the steamed and chopped broccoli, shredded cheese, sliced onions, salt and pepper to taste. Mix to combine.
-
Fill the muffin cups with the egg mixture. Bake for 12 minutes, until the frittatas are firm.
Recipe Notes
Note: To steam the broccoli, bring an inch of water to a boil in a medium saucepan fitted with a steamer basket (if you don't have a steamer basket you can use a fine sieve or just place the broccoli in the water). Cut off and discard the stalk and rinse the broccoli bunch with water. Place broccoli in steamer basket, cover, and steam on medium heat for 5 minutes, until crisp-tender. Don't overcook.
1 – I want to use Double Sized muffin tin . ( 6 units ) , Will actual cook time be the same ?
2 – Any Suggestions for herbs / seasoning that will help with flavoring.
Hi Jim! A double-sized muffin pan will take longer to cook if you’re filling to twice the size of the recipe as-written. As we haven’t tried that, I can’t say how long it will take to bake exactly, but just follow Tessa’s direction to bake “until the frittatas are firm.” As for herbs or seasoning, fresh chives or parsley would be delicious, as would garlic – or even a little smoked paprika or chili powder, if you like a little heat! Let us know what you think once you’ve given these frittatas a try! 🙂
just discovered your website and I love these fun and great looking recipes. Can't wait to try them
I think I found my favorite site!!
Will these store/reheat well? Looks delish and could be a great idea for my hectic mornings if they can be reheated and thoroughly enjoyed the next morning as well?
I made these using a Martha Stewart recipe for a baby shower and they were a big hit. Tastes great with some red or green peppers too.
These fritttate look so lovely. I think I need frittate in my life, too. I'll be bookmarking this recipe. Thank you. Lovely photo!
These look wonderful! Love mini anything! It's such a pleasure reading your blog, Tessa!
I've made these and I use all sorts of different veggies and cheeses! So easy and good!
Too many eggs! Is that even possible? I usually have 3 cartons (farm-fresh, large organic, and jumbo cage-free)….
The mini frittatas look delicious!
Thanks! I currently have 5 cartons right now (and that was after making a few dishes)!! And there's only 2 of us in the house.
Oh..they look so cute and scrumptious! Lovely idea to use muffins tins for making them. And a great way to make my kids love their Broccoli 🙂
