A hearty breakfast, potato and spinach frittata is an egg-based dish packed with flavor. Perfect for brunch or even dinner, frittatas are a one-pan recipe that’s sure to please.
A frittata is an all-in-one breakfast dish that combines eggs, potatoes, bacon, spinach, cheese, and more!
It’s got pretty much everything you would want in a breakfast recipe, but it’s all cooked in one pan and goes straight from the stove to the oven.
There are a few steps involved, though, so I’m going to walk you through the whole recipe to let you follow along in pictures too.
How to Make a Frittata
Ingredients for frittata:
- new potatoes
- olive oil
- onions, thinly sliced
- bacon, cooked and crumbled
- spinach, frozen, thawed, and squeezed dry
- cheddar cheese, grated
- eggs
- sour cream
- salt
- pepper
- Clean potatoes and place them in a saucepan. Cover with water and then bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat and simmer for about 10-12 minutes. They should be easily pierced with a knife when they’re done.Remove from heat and drain. Once they’re cool to the touch, peel and then cut into thick slices.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Meanwhile, heat oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook for about 2-3 minutes until translucent. Add potato slices and cook with onions for another 5 minutes or so until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add crumbled bacon and spinach and stir to combine.
- In a medium bowl, combine eggs, cheddar cheese, and another dash of salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Reduce the heat on the stove to medium and then pour egg mixture over the potatoes in the pan. Dollop with sour cream.
- Take a knife and swirl it through the sour cream and egg mixture to combine them. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the edge starts to set.
- Transfer pan to the preheated oven and cook until eggs are completely set. About 10-12 minutes.
- Place a large serving plate over the skillet and flip over so that you’re inverting the frittata onto the plate.
- You can absolutely serve it that way, but I like the way it looks when the sour cream is face side up. So I actually take a second plate and invert it again! Just a personal preference… tastes the same either way!
