Oven-Baked Bacon & Cheddar Breakfast Frittata

Ingredients

- 6 slices bacon
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium red onion, diced
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Cook the Bacon
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add bacon slices and cook until crispy, about 7-10 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease and cool. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.

3. Prepare the Vegetables
In the same skillet, remove excess bacon grease, leaving about 1 tablespoon. Add the diced red and green bell peppers, along with the diced red onion. Sauté over medium heat until the vegetables are softened, approximately 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

4. Mix the Egg Base
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until fully combined.

5. Assemble the Frittata
Add sautéed vegetables and crumbled bacon into the egg mixture, stirring gently to combine. Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or oven-safe skillet. Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared dish. Sprinkle shredded sharp cheddar cheese over the top.

6. Bake the Frittata
Place the dish in the preheated oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is slightly golden.

7. Cool and Serve
Allow the frittata to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm for a delicious breakfast treat.
