Use the following suggestions as a starting point.
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 each red and green pepper, chopped
- 6 to 8 baby spinach leaves, chopped
- Small handful of cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper to season
Equipment
- air fryer
- baking pan to fit your air fryer
Making It
Step 1
Once you’ve decided which ingredients you want to include, you need to prepare them by beating the eggs, chopping up the vegetables and grating the cheese.
Step 2
Grease the dish/tin with a tiny bit of butter or oil of your choice and put it in the air fryer. Turn the air fryer to 180°C/350°F and allow it to heat for 1 minute. Pull the tray out and add the chopped vegetables.
Air fry the peppers and cook for 3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Step 3
Mix the chopped spinach with the beaten eggs.
Step 4
Pour the egg and spinach over the softened peppers and sprinkle the grated cheese over the top.
Close the air fryer basket and air fry for a further 6 minutes, checking on it for 3 minutes to check how quickly it cooks.
The frittata is ready when the egg has set and is beginning to brown.
