1.Transfer the skillet to the oven at 190°C.
2.Bake for 15-20 minutes until the frittata is set in the center and lightly golden on top; a toothpick inserted should come out clean.
💡 If the top isn’t golden after 15 minutes, broil for 1-2 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
7
Check Brussels Sprouts and Rest Frittata
⏱ 0:30both
1.Remove both the frittata and Brussels sprouts from the oven.
2.Let the frittata rest for 2-3 minutes to firm up before slicing.
3.Sprinkle fresh herbs over the frittata if using.

💡 Resting the frittata makes it easier to cut clean slices.
🍽️ Slice the frittata into wedges and place one on each plate, with a generous scoop of golden roasted Brussels sprouts on the side, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired.
