Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 4 ounces brie cheese, rind removed and cubed
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch oven-safe cast iron skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add the cut asparagus to the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until slightly tender-crisp.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the asparagus in the skillet.
  6. Distribute the cubed brie cheese and grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the eggs.
  7. Cook on the stovetop for 2 to 3 minutes until the edges begin to set.
  8. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
  9. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the center and lightly golden brown.
  10. Remove from the oven and let it cool in the skillet for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For a beautiful presentation, arrange the asparagus spears neatly before adding the eggs.
  • This recipe works well as a healthy lunch idea or a Mother’s Day menu centerpiece.
  • If you do not have a cast iron skillet, you can use an oven-safe non-stick pan.
