How to Make Air Fryer Frittata
Grease the baking pan using cooking spray, butter, or vegetable oil, and line the base with parchment paper (optional).
Crack eggs into a large bowl and whisk until well combined. Add milk, chopped peppers, onions, coriander, mushroom, salt, and pepper. Whisk until combined.
Carefully place the egg pan in your air fryer basket and cook for 15 minutes at 170C/340F or till cooked through and a toothpick inserted comes out clean or firm and not shaky in the middle.
Remove the egg bake from the air fryer, turn it into a plate, and slice it into wedges. Serve and enjoy!
How to Store and Reheat
We recommend making as much as you can consume because frittata is best eaten fresh. Keep leftover frittata in the fridge or freezer.
Fridge - keep for up to 3 days if stored properly in an airtight container.
Freezer - wrap in a cling film before placing in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
Reheat in a microwave or air fryer. Remember to remove the clingfilm. Reheat for 4 minutes at a temperature of 165C or till the omelet Frittata is hot throughout.
