Frittata Prepared in an Air Fryer

Ingredients 0/8

Step 1

Heat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). While it’s warming up, spray a small metal container—about 6 inches wide and 4 inches tall—with cooking spray. This will be your inner pot for the frittata. Add a bit of butter to the container and pop it into the air fryer for about 45 seconds to melt the butter.

Step 2

Once the butter is melted, toss in the chopped bell pepper and onion, and let them cook for a couple of minutes until they start to soften. Take the container out carefully, stir in the cooked sausage crumbles, then sprinkle on the Colby Jack cheese.

Step 3

In a bowl, beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are fully mixed. Season with salt, pepper, and a splash of hot sauce if you like a little kick. Pour the egg mixture over the other ingredients in the container and gently stir to combine everything.

Step 4

Put the container back into the air fryer basket and cook for about 12 minutes. Check by inserting a toothpick in the center—it should come out clean, and the top should be lightly browned. If it needs more time, keep air frying in 30-second bursts until it’s set. Serve it warm or at room temperature, maybe with some salsa on the side.
