Ingredients
 
 

  • ⅔ tbsp butter
  • 7 oz fresh spinach
  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 tbsp heavy cream
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 oz mozzarella cheese grated
  • 1 ¾ oz feta cheese crumbled

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
  • Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the spinach and cook until completely wilted and any released moisture has evaporated. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl. Add the heavy cream and season with salt and black pepper. Whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.
  • Add the grated mozzarella and mix until evenly distributed.
  • Grease a pie dish or oven-safe baking dish and pour in the egg mixture.
  • Distribute the cooked spinach evenly throughout the egg mixture, then crumble the feta over the top.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the eggs are completely set in the center.
  • Allow the frittata to rest for a few minutes before slicing into 4 portions and serving.

Notes

  • Cook the moisture out of the spinach: Spinach releases a surprising amount of water as it cooks. Let that moisture evaporate before adding it to the frittata so it does not dilute the eggs or leave the finished frittata watery.
  • Do not overbake the eggs: Remove the frittata once the center has just set. The residual heat will continue cooking the eggs for a few minutes after it comes out of the oven, so leaving it in too long can make the texture dry and rubbery.
  • Let it rest before slicing: Resting the frittata for a few minutes allows the eggs to settle and firm slightly, which gives you cleaner slices without overcooking the center.
