Frittata Cups
These Frittata Cups are an easy and simple recipe that works for both breakfast and as a filling, healthy snack.
What I like the most about this recipe is that it is both sweet and savory. Savory from the cheddar, veggies, and eggs with a hint of honey from Dempster’s Honey Wheat.

I’m a huge fan of honey; I add it to my tea, my yogurt, and my smoothies. It’s a natural way to sweeten food that doesn’t add refined sugars. I’m not the only one that has noticed that either. Canadians are becoming more healthy conscious and are learning the health facts of honey and because of that, the rate of honey consumption is growing rapidly. The honey industry produced 43,227 tonnes of honey in 2015! That’s a lot of honey.
Dempster’s knows that honey is more than just a trend and that’s why they have released Dempster’s Honey Wheat. With no artificial colors or flavours, Dempster’s Honey Wheat bread adds a hint of honey sweetness to the bread that enhances any savory snack.
As I said before, the honey adds a touch of sweetness to the Frittata cups but I also love this bread smothered with peanut butter too.
Frittata Cups
These Frittata Cups are so easy to put together. They’re perfect when you’re on the go and don’t have time for breakfast, simply grab a cup and go. You can zap it in the microwave for a few seconds if you prefer it warm, but they’re delicious cold too.
A little bonus for the fixers (since I know I’m going to be asked): 1 Frittata Cup = 1 yellow, 1/2 red, 1/2 blue, 1/2 green.

These sound wonderful! I never would have thought of making these in muffin cups!
I make this frittata almost every day for dinner except I use pre chopped peppers and onions, and spinach. I use a large non stick pan and sauté the veggies together in a little olive oil. I whip together 2 eggs and then pour them over the veggies. I then place some cheese on top . When the bottom is browned, I slide a spatula under half the frittata and fold it over, lower the heat and cook a few minutes so the inside is cooked. Alternatively if you have an oven safe pan you can slide it under the broiler and watch closely till browned. It will puff up nicely. Serve with bread or toast.
Sounds delicious Rosemary!
