Instructions

Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) so it’s hot and ready for even baking and a slight golden top on your frittatas.
Prepare the Ingredients: Finely chop all vegetables to fit comfortably inside muffin cups, grate cheese if needed, and whisk together the eggs and milk or cream until combined and slightly frothy.
Combine and Season: Stir in the chopped veggies, cheese, salt, pepper, and herbs into the egg mixture, mixing well to distribute flavors evenly.
Pour Into Muffin Tin: Generously grease a muffin tin with oil, butter, or non-stick spray. Pour the egg mixture into each cup, filling about three-quarters full to allow rising without spilling.
Bake Until Set: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the frittatas are puffed up, firm, and golden around the edges.
Cool and Serve: Let the frittatas cool for a few minutes, then run a knife around the edges to remove them easily. Serve warm or refrigerate for later use.

Notes

Use fresh vegetables and herbs to maximize flavor and color.
Do not overfill muffin cups to prevent overflow during baking.
Dice all ingredients evenly for consistent cooking and texture.
Grease muffin tins well to avoid sticking issues.
Allow frittatas to cool before removing for cleaner results.
Start with classic flavors before experimenting with bold spices or meat variations.
