Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • ½ onion medium, diced
  • 1 cup mini bell peppers diced (about 10 to 12 peppers)
  • 3 cups loosely packed spinach
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 10 eggs
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 3 ounces feta cheese crumbled
  • Optional for garnish: 2 tablespoons chives chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375F and spray a standard size muffin pan with nonstick spray.
  • Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat and melt one tablespoon of butter. Add diced onions and sweet peppers and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
  • Add chopped spinach and continue to cook until wilted. Remove from heat and pour vegetables onto a paper towel lined plate to absorb excess liquid.
  • In a large bowl, whisk eggs with heavy cream, salt and pepper.
  • Divide the sautéed vegetables among the 12 wells of your muffin pan. Crumble about a teaspoon of feta cheese on top of each.
  • Pour about ¼ cup of the egg mixture into each of the wells (about ¾ full). Top with more feta cheese and chopped chives, if desired.
  • Bake at 375°F for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the mini frittatas start to rise up and get puffy.
  • Remove from the oven and cool for 5 minutes in the pan. They will deflate as they cool.
  • Run a paring knife around the edges of each frittata to help remove them.
  • Serve immediately, or cool completely before storing. See storage instructions below.

Notes

Some of the frittatas will puff up more than others and they will all deflate as they cool. That is normal.
Make ahead instructions: You can cook the vegetables and store them in a paper towel lined container in the refrigerator overnight. The eggs can also be whisked and refrigerated. In the morning just assemble and bake!
Refrigerator and freezer storage: Cool completely and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Allow to thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
Reheating: Wrap in a damp paper towel and reheat in the microwave for about 30 seconds on high. If reheating from frozen, it may take 1 or 2 minutes. You can also reheat them covered in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes, 15 minutes if frozen.
