How to Cook Mini Frittatas
- Whisk the eggs, milk, ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and ¼ teaspoon salt in a large bowl to blend well. Roughly chop the ham and grate the Parmesan. Stir them into the mix along with the parsley.
- Spray 2 mini-cake (mini muffin) tins with 24 cups with non-stick spray or grease lightly with butter. Fill the cups almost to the top with the the egg mixture and bake in a preheated moderately hot oven (Mk 5 - 375ºF - 190ºC) until the egg mixture puffs and is just set in the centre (about 8 to 10 minutes). Using a rubber spatula, loosen the frittatas from the muffin cups and slide them onto a platter. Serve immediately with a side salad or as part of a finger buffet.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
You can use normal size cake tins (muffin tins) if you want. You should get about 10 or 12 "muffin-size" frittatas.
Reviews of Mini Frittatas
| August 05 2014 These are so easy and fantastically versatile. I baked mine for 9 mins and they came out perfectly cooked. They're great to make ahead and heat up quickly for a quick breakfast. They stuck a bit to the metallic mini muffin pan so I guess I'll use the silicone ones next time. Really good recipe. Thanks josie (5 reviews) |
