Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/4 cup diced onion
- 1/4 cup cooked bacon or sausage, crumbled (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
For Cooking
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron to the desired temperature and lightly coat the cooking surfaces with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Eggs and Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Then stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, diced bell peppers, diced onion, and cooked bacon or sausage if using.
- Grease Waffle Iron: Brush the hot waffle iron plates with olive oil or melted butter to ensure the frittaffle cooks evenly and releases easily.
- Cook the Frittaffle: Carefully pour the egg mixture into the center of the waffle iron, spreading it slightly but avoiding overfilling. Close the waffle iron and cook for 4 to 6 minutes until the eggs are fully set and the exterior is lightly golden and crisp.
- Remove and Serve: Carefully remove the frittaffle from the waffle iron and serve immediately. Enjoy plain or with toppings like avocado, salsa, or hot sauce.
Notes
- Avoid overfilling the waffle iron to prevent egg mixture from spilling out during cooking.
- Customize your frittaffle by adding spinach, mushrooms, ham, or different types of cheese.
- Pair your frittaffle with avocado, salsa, or hot sauce for extra flavor and texture.
