How to Make Potato Frittata

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add chopped onion and crumbled bacon; sauté until onions are softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in chopped ham (if using).
  5. Add frozen hash browns to the skillet. Do not thaw.
  6. Toss well with the oil, salt, pepper, and thyme.
  7. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the underside of the potatoes is lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  8. Gently flip the potato mixture to brown the other side.
  9. Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the potatoes. Using a spatula, gently lift the edges of the potatoes to allow the eggs to flow underneath.
  10. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
  11. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake until the cheese is melted and the eggs are set, about 10-12 minutes.
  12. Let cool slightly before serving.
  13. Serve warm in wedges, accompanied by a fresh salad or your favorite breakfast fruit.
