Notes:
This frittata is versatile! You can swap out veggies, add herbs, or switch up the cheese based on your taste and what you have on hand.
Make sure to use a shallow, oven-safe dish, parchment paper or silicone mold that fits inside the air fryer basket. A deeper dish will increase cooking time and may leave the middle runny.
Air fryer models can vary, so keep an eye on the frittata as it cooks. Adjust time as needed to ensure the middle sets fully.
Cooking at 325°F (163°C) gives you a tender, evenly cooked frittata without over-browning the top.
f the top is cooking too quickly, loosely cover the frittata with foil about halfway through to allow the center to finish cooking without burning the top.
If you’re adding watery vegetables like tomatoes or mushrooms, consider lightly cooking them first to reduce moisture. This helps prevent a soggy frittata.
