Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures the oven is ready and properly heated when you need it.
- In a large bowl, crack the 6 large eggs and add 1/4 cup of milk. Whisk together until well combined for a light, fluffy texture.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper, and 1 cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese to the egg mixture. Stir until everything is thoroughly mixed.
- Place an oven-safe non-stick skillet on medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the skillet evenly.
- Once the butter is melted and bubbling, pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook for 5 minutes without stirring. This allows the bottom to set and become slightly golden.
- After the egg mixture has set slightly, sprinkle 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley evenly on top. Fresh herbs add color and flavor!
- Carefully transfer the skillet to your preheated oven. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the frittata is puffed and the center is no longer jiggly. Keep an eye on it to avoid overcooking.
- Using oven mitts, carefully remove the skillet from the oven. Allow the frittata to cool for a couple of minutes. It slides out of the pan more easily when it’s slightly cooled.
- Slice the Parmesan Frittata into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious homemade frittata!
