Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 0.25 cups heavy cream
- 3 cups baby spinach
- 1 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk them thoroughly. Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 3
Finely mince the garlic cloves and set them aside.
Step 4
Heat a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Add the baby spinach to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until it has wilted down.

Reduce the heat to low and spread the spinach evenly across the bottom of the skillet. Pour the egg mixture over the spinach.
Step 7
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the eggs.
Step 8
Allow the frittata to cook on the stovetop for 5-7 minutes, or until the edges start to set and pull away from the sides of the skillet.
Step 9
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
Step 10
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool for 5 minutes before slicing it into wedges.
