Description

A delicious frittata made with biscuits, eggs, cheese, and vegetables, perfect for a hearty breakfast.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (8-count) refrigerated biscuit dough, cut into quarters
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup diced bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped baby spinach
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • 1/2 cup cooked, crumbled breakfast sausage or bacon (optional)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Set the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9×13-inch baking dish or a large ovenproof skillet by greasing it with butter or nonstick spray.
  2. Arrange Biscuits: Distribute the quartered biscuit dough evenly across the bottom of the prepared dish.
  3. Whisk Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika until fully blended.
  4. Add Cheese and Vegetables: Fold in cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, diced bell pepper, onion, chopped spinach, and any optional meat.
  5. Combine and Submerge Biscuits: Pour the egg and vegetable mixture evenly over the biscuit pieces, then gently press down with a spatula to mostly submerge the biscuits.
  6. Add Butter: Drizzle melted butter evenly over the surface.
  7. Bake: Transfer to the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until puffed and the center is just set.
  8. Cool and Garnish: Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.

Notes

  • Ensure the biscuit dough is cut evenly for uniform cooking.
  • Feel free to customize by adding your favorite vegetables or meats.
  • Allow frittata to cool slightly for easier slicing.
