Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 medium zucchini, grated
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- 2In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 3Stir in the grated zucchini, salt, pepper, and oregano. Cook for approximately 5 minutes, until the zucchini softens. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- 4In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Stir in the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, then fold in the zucchini mixture and fresh basil if using.
- 5Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round baking dish or an oven-safe skillet with olive oil. Pour the frittata mixture into the dish and spread it evenly.
- 6Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the frittata is set and lightly golden on top. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
- 7Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Slice and serve warm, garnished with additional fresh basil if desired.
