How to Make Baked Broccoli Frittata

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large (12-inch) oven-safe non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 4 cups chopped broccoli florets, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil.
  5. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese.
  7. In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs and 2 large egg whites (or desired egg combination – see recipe notes for substitutions).
  8. Gently stir the broccoli mixture into the egg mixture.
  9. Pour the egg and broccoli mixture into the prepared skillet.
  10. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
  11. Bake, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes, or until the frittata is set and golden brown, and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
