Recommended Pans

For the stovetop-to-oven method, use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet (affiliate link) or an oven-safe, non-stick skillet.

If you’re opting for a baked method, use a well-oiled baking dish or muffin tin (I actually didn’t have to oil this muffin tin, but my other “non-stick” muffin tin caused problems. Oil your pan to be safe).

What to serve with frittatas
Frittatas make a great main dish for any meal of the day. Or, you can treat a frittata as a side dish in a larger breakfast spread (especially mini frittatas).

Sides that complement frittatas include simple green salads, breakfast potatoes or hash browns, and toasted whole-grain bread.

Frittata garnishes and toppings
Frittatas don’t always win the beauty contest. For extra visual appeal, finish your frittata off with a sprinkle of fresh, leafy herbs (such as basil, parsley or cilantro) or snipped fresh chives.

For an extra-luxurious frittata, top individual slices with a dollop of pesto or your favorite herbed condiment. Another option? Finish them with a very light drizzle of thick balsamic vinegar or balsamic glaze. Working with a Mexican-ish frittata? Try hot sauce or gently warmed salsa.
