Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Vegetables & Cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/4 cup chopped spinach
- 2 tablespoons chopped onion
Meat (Optional)
- 1/4 cup cooked and crumbled bacon or sausage (optional)
Cooking
- Cooking spray or melted butter for waffle iron
Instructions
- Preheat the waffle iron. Lightly grease your waffle iron with cooking spray or melted butter to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal.
- Prepare the egg mixture. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
- Add mix-ins. Stir in shredded cheddar cheese, diced bell peppers, chopped spinach, chopped onion, and cooked bacon or sausage, if using, ensuring an even distribution.
- Cook the frittaffle. Pour the egg mixture into the preheated waffle iron carefully, avoiding overfilling to prevent spillage. Close the lid and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until the eggs are fully set and the exterior turns lightly golden brown.
- Serve hot. Carefully remove the frittaffle from the waffle iron with a spatula and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Customize your frittaffle with additional mix-ins such as mushrooms, tomatoes, or different types of cheese.
- For a vegetarian option, simply omit the bacon or sausage.
- Make sure not to overfill the waffle iron to avoid egg mixture spilling out during cooking.
- Serve with your choice of salsa, hot sauce, or avocado for extra flavor.
