Ingredients

  • 10 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons milk or cream
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 cup bell peppers, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup yellow onions, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup spinach, finely diced

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Air fryer: Set the Air fryer temperature to 350°F (179°C). To make removal easier, lightly oil a 12-cup muffin pan or line it with silicone muffin cups.
  2. Get the egg mixture ready. Whisk the eggs, milk (or cream), salt, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl until the mixture is completely blended and just beginning to foam.
  3. Add the cheese and vegetables: Stir until the ingredients are well distributed, then gently fold in the chopped bell peppers, onions, spinach, and crumbled feta cheese.
  4. Fill the Muffin Tin: Fill each muffin cup approximately three-quarters of the way to the top with the egg mixture. As they bake, the frittatas will gradually swell.
    Put the muffin tray in the oven that has been warmed, and bake the frittatas for 8-10  minutes, or until they are set and have a light golden top.
  5. Allow the muffins to cool in the muffin tray for a few minutes before taking them out to serve. You may serve them warm or let them cool fully before putting them in the fridge in an airtight container.
