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) |

The smoke, the sizzle, the aroma, yeah - it's time for BBQ but don't buy scrappy steaks if you want to eat like a king.
Pork, beef, turkey, it doesn't matter - a sausage is a great way to get protein on you plate quickly and easily with maximum pleasure!
Those wonderful beasts that just scream for something hot and tasty between toasted bread or buns. Once tasted, never forgotten!
