Ingredients

• 2 cups Fresh broccoli florets
• 6 large Eggs
• 0.25 cups Milk
• 0.25 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and blanch them for 2-3 minutes until bright green and just tender. Immediately transfer the broccoli to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.

Step 4

Heat olive oil and butter in a 10-inch, ovenproof, non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 5

Add the blanched broccoli florets to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes to warm them through.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture over the broccoli, ensuring the eggs cover the vegetables evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.

Step 8

Cook the frittata on the stovetop for about 5 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly liquid.

Step 9

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed and the center is fully set.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from the oven and allow the frittata to cool for a couple of minutes.

Step 11

Carefully slice the frittata into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.
