How to Make Caramelized Bacon Mini Frittatas
Step 1
Cook the bacon to your liking. I prefer making bacon in the air fryer on bake at 400°F for about 10 to 12 minutes so it’s golden brown as I like crispy bacon. But you cook it however you like it!
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, add the eggs and whisk together to combine. Chop bacon into small pieces and set aside.
Step 3
In a small skillet, add the onions and olive oil. Cook over medium heat until the onions are translucent and fragrant and begin to caramelize. Cook until lightly golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add salt and pepper to taste.
Step 4
Grease two 6-inch cast iron skillets well with extra virgin olive oil. Pour half the eggs into each skillet. Add half the onions and half the bacon into each one evenly.
Step 5
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the eggs are set.
Tools Needed
Large mixing bowl
Small skillet (for cooking onions)
Mini Cast Iron Skillets (6-inch)
Why go organic?
You may be wondering why I push organic ingredients for everything, even savory and healthy dishes. Organic ingredients go beyond just health and wellness, and contribute so much to the taste and flavor of a recipe. So, if you think that you’re making something healthy and buying fruits, veggies, or meats so maybe you don’t need to spend the extra to go organic here – let me sway your thinking.
Organic ingredients are made in a more pure way, therefore using no additives, no GMOs, and minimal ingredients. This really allows the true ingredients to shine – and because of that their flavor shines through. Therefore, organic ingredients are more flavorful than their non organic counterparts. So, just because it’s already a healthy recipe, or you’re already buying good for you ingredients – it doesn’t mean you can skip organic! Trust me here, and make the switch. Your body and your taste buds will thank you!
So, I highly recommend that you buy the best organic ingredients for this recipe! You can also shop my Amazon Storefront for all my favorite organic ingredients here. Tip – hover over each ingredient to see the name. And if you want to learn more about organic foods and the difference, read my post here on Food Labels and What They Mean.
