Ingredients

  • 6 Eggs
  • 1 cup Dairy-Free Ricotta Cheese (almond or cashew-based)
  • about 142 g Fresh Spinach
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

  1. 1Preheat your oven to 190°C.
  2. 2Place an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once the oil is warm, add the 2 minced cloves of garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is fragrant.
  3. 3Add the about 142 g of fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach has wilted and reduced significantly in volume. Season the spinach with the 1/2 teaspoon of salt and the 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, stirring to combine.
  4. 4In a medium bowl, whisk together the 6 eggs and the 1 cup of dairy-free ricotta cheese until they are well combined and smooth.
  5. 5Pour the whisked egg and ricotta mixture evenly over the cooked spinach in the skillet.
  6. 6Carefully transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. The frittata is done when the center is set (no longer jiggly), and the top is lightly golden brown.
  7. 7Remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool in the skillet for 5-10 minutes before slicing into 4 portions and serving. This cooling time allows the frittata to firm up slightly, making it easier to slice.
