    7 Air Fryer Frittata

    I love frittatas because they’re easy to make, and you can add as many ingredients as you like. Another delicious frittata recipe is this spinach and goat cheese frittata.

    INGREDIENT NOTES

    • Eggs – For a lighter version, feel free to use 4 whole eggs and 2 egg whites.
    • Whole Milk – Any type of milk will work.
    • Spinach – Fresh or frozen spinach is fine just make sure to fully thaw the frozen spinach and discard any excess liquid.
    • Tomatoes – I used cherry tomatoes but any type of tomatoes will work.
    • Feta Cheese – Completely optional but adds great flavor!

    TOP TIPS

    • Make sure to cover the frittata with aluminum foil to prevent the top from burning.
    • If you want your frittata to have some color, remove the foil when the frittata is halfway done.
    • Feel free to include ham, mushrooms, or the veggies and protein of your choice.
    • It’s crucial that you use greased parchment paper, so the eggs don’t stick.
    • Feel free to add more salt and pepper than recommended. Taste it and adjust seasoning to your liking.

    HOW LONG DO I COOK IT FOR?

    I cooked this at 400 degrees for a total of 23 minutes but keep in mind that every air fryer is different.

    CAN I MAKE THIS IN THE OVEN INSTEAD?

    Yes, of course. To make it in the oven, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and bake the frittata for 15-20 minutes or until the eggs are fully set.

    STORAGE

    If you have any leftovers, transfer them to an air-tight container and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven, microwave, or air fryer.
