Loaded Country Frittatas

Recently, while volunteering at our local church we made these ( a little different) Frittatas for a Missionary Conference. I was so impressed with the recipe, I figured we'd try it out at home. 

Unlike me, you won't be making 200 of these bad boys like we did! However, for our recipe, we did double it and made about two and a half muffin pans of them. 

My only tip is making sure they are cooked fully because you are dealing with eggs.  So, the recipe may say cook for 20 minutes or so but with ours, we went about 25-28 minutes. Partly because ours were so loaded with goodies, it took them a little longer to cook. 

Let's get down to business! 

Ingredients:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees, 

325 if using a convection oven

Cook for 20-28 minutes or until lightly browned 

1 can (12 fl. oz. ) Evaporated Milk

3 large eggs, beaten

2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

2 cups (8 oz. pkg.) shredded cheese mild or sharp

2 cups chopped frozen broccoli, thawed and drained

1/2 cup chopped bell pepper

cooking spray

For our recipe we added:

1 cup chopped up ham

or you can use

1 cup cooked, chopped up bacon

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine these ingredients. 

Add your eggs, and beat well. 

Then slowly add in the evaporated milk, stirring slowly. Mix well. 

Next, you are going to add all your chopped and diced ingredients. Add the bell peppers and broccoli. 

Lastly, add the shredded cheese and ham or bacon (which is optional but really makes them so much tastier.) 

Stir all ingredients really well and set aside. 

Completely coat, very well with cooking spray. These babies tend to stick and can be a pain getting out of the pan without enough spray. Don't use muffin tins because they will stick to them and are almost impossible to get off. 

Then, you'll want to grab an ice cream scoop or a 1/3 measuring cup. 

Fill each muffin cup just about to the brim. 

Cook in the oven for 20-28 minutes. I always set the timer for 15-20 minutes and then increase the time by 5 minutes each additional time and check them. You don't want them to burn. However, slightly brown is good. 

Once cooled remove from muffin pan by taking a plastic fork or knife and go around the edges of the muffin cups. Then I use a fork to gently lift them out and set on cooling racks to continue to cool. 

You can freeze them as well. :) 

Great breakfast for you or your family. Enjoy! :)
