Join the discussionI love this. I never thought to use a mini muffin pan for mini veggie frittatas. I love quiche also but the crust is my least favorite part so this is perfect! Do you think Parmesan cheese would work okay in these?
I think Parmesan cheese would work great also. I love this recipe because it is so flexible!
Perfect, thank you. Going to make these later today!
Is a muffin pan and cupcake pan the same thing?
Yes, they are the same thing. For this recipe I used a mini muffin pan, but you could use a regular size muffin as well – they just wouldn’t be as “mini” 🙂
Yummiola – I made some mini quiche recently and they were a big hit. I even had a college student ask me if he could take all the leftovers home with him (I couldn’t turn him down).:)

Looks delish!We’d love for you to share your recipes with us atSimply Delish Saturday
I have made something like this for years. I use diced ham, spinach, and shredded cheese. I add finely diced onions and green peppers sometimes.
These look and sound fantastic! Question though: do you ever have problems with these sticking to your muffin pans? I have baked egg muffins in the past and even with cooking spray they stuck to the pan. Ever since then, I’m a little leery. Convince me 😉
Mine stick to the bottoms a little bit. But I find that if I spray liberally with cooking spray they come out pretty easily. Once they have cooled a little I use a knife to loosen the edges and then they generally pop right out.
How could I reheat these without using the microwave? I don’t like using it for anything I feed the kids. Do you think they would dry out being reheated in the oven? Thanks!
Reheating in the oven would not take long and would probably not dry them out provided you thawed the frittatas first.
I substituted some ingredients but kept the egg/milk ratio the same. The were pretty good fresh from the oven—-But they were FANTASTIC the next day. We put half the order in the fridge and gobbled them up the next morning……Must be the marrying of flavors that improved it……6 mini frittatas takes about 30 seconds in the microwave to re-heat from fridge.
