Mini-Frittatas

Shrugged has come back with yet another one! And here she did some work by making the recipe for Mini-Frittatas adhere to Kosher guidelines. Thanks to her. She writes:

Frittatas are a traditional Italian breakfast food, and are basically just baked omelets. I've kosher-ized the recipe for you. Really you can put anything into this recipe you would normally put in your omelets. The first batch I made had ham and bacon, the next had chopped turkey. But for those of you who eat kosher, you can easily skip the meats and add in sauteed onions or mushrooms or peppers. These are great by themselves, or excellent on mini-bagels for a nice breakfast sandwich.

Ingredients: (Requires a Blender as well)

1. 8 medium to large sized eggs
2. 1/2 cup whipping cream (or whole milk, if you prefer)
3. 1/2 cup grated cheddar
4. 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
   
5. 1 teaspoon parsley flakes
6. salt & pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
   
2. Prepare a 12 muffin pan by spraying each cup with non-stick cooking spray.
   
3. Using a blender, beat the eggs until slightly frothy.
   
4. Add milk and beat until well combined.
   
5. Add in additional ingredients, again beating until well combined.
   
6. Pour egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
   
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the center of each frittata is firm.
   
8. Remove from oven, allow to cool slightly and using a soft spatula gently remove each frittata from the pan.
   
9. Serve immediately, or store and heat each in the microwave for a quick snack later.

First thanks to Shrugged for working to make sure the recipe was kosher! (I think there is usually a combo of meat and milk here and she worked to take it out and make sure it was just as tasty.) This gets a two for difficulty. I think it is fairly easy (but some may find it challenging between a 2 and 3 star for difficulty.) Takes a bit of planning for breakfast and a bit more time in the kitchen that is for sure - but is great for a family breakfast when everyone has the time to sit around and compliment you on what a great chef you are. Just make sure you don't end up doing the dishes!
