Recipe video above. A great frittata is a thing of beauty! Great for feeding a group , or a make ahead meal for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Soft and custardy on the inside, this is one of those recipes that's great to adapt to whatever add ins you want. See notes for STOVE ONLY version.

Steps
Preheat oven to 180C/350F.
Whisk eggs, milk, salt and pepper.
Heat oil in a well seasoned skillet or non stick pan (about 26cm / 11") over medium high heat.
Add bacon and cook until almost golden.
Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
Add spinach and toss until just wilted - bacon should now be golden.
Turn heat down to medium. Remove about 1/3 of the bacon spinach into a bowl (for topping).
Add butter into the pan and swirl/spread across base of the pan.
Pour in about 2/3 of the egg mixture. Scatter over half the cheese, then pour over remaining egg mixture.
Scatter over reserved bacon and spinach, then cheese.
Cook for about 3 minutes until the sides are just set but not golden - check with knife.
Transfer to oven and cook for 8 minutes until the centre is just set and the cheese is melted on top.
Rest for a few minutes then slice and serve.

Reviews
Emma Westcott on 2026-04-04 (5 stars): Delicious, and so easy. We made it for an Easter brunch spread. It was popular, I would definitely make this again. Thanks Nagi!
Kaela on 2026-03-28 (5 stars): Perfection
Alexandra Kateley on 2026-03-14 (5 stars): I made this for my husband to augment his lunches for the week. Delicious!!! Will definitely make again!
Libby Brown on 2025-12-22 (5 stars): I made this frying bacon and added capsicum, and celery to mix, layering it in a quiche dish before finishing off in oven. Presentation for a Xmas gathering worked well. Next time I might add dried chillis for a bit more tanginess, but this worked well, and very nourishing! My chooks would have been proud to hear all the praise!
Margaret Schlenk on 2025-03-15 (5 stars): I make this a lot, ideal as a lunch. I usually add cooked sliced potato and brown then set aside while continuing as Nagi suggests.
Erin Roberts on 2025-02-09 (3 stars): Really tasty but way too salty, with the bacon and the cheese as well as the added salt. Would make again but omit the added salt.
Karen Roberts on 2024-07-09 (5 stars): Really good. I made it with white cheddar cheese because that was all I had. This was a great way to use up some of my eggs. My chickens think they are competing in the egg laying Olympics and so far they are in the lead.
Paula McArthur on 2024-04-28 (5 stars): The BEST frittata I've ever made!
Ariane G on 2024-03-29 (5 stars): Just made this for our Good Friday lunch; omitted the bacon and used silverbeet instead of spinach, and it was still delicious. Quick and easy. Love the flavour and texture.
Leonor reyes on 2024-03-05 (5 stars): Nagi love all food recipe you create thank you
Tramanh Nguyen on 2024-03-02 (5 stars): Delicious and easy to follow
Erin on 2023-09-09 (5 stars): Have eggs and just some bits and pieces left over in the fridge. Used less bacon and more veggies. Also added a shake of dried chilli flakes. Amazing! First time made this and it was great!
Emily on 2022-12-29 (5 stars): Great quick dinner with the Christmas ham for 7 adults & kids. Everyone loved it.
Carol on 2022-10-19 (5 stars): Brilliant! I made this for my husband's on-the-go breakfast..Thank you, Nagi!
Terry on 2022-07-28 (5 stars): Really tasty and very easy to make
Sophia on 2022-05-24 (5 stars): 10/10! Would definitely make this again. I made it without changing the serving and it was delicious! Eating it now after a few days and it is even more soft and custardy. I used parmesan instead of mozzarella because it was all I had. I probably should've toned down the salt a bit. I also added some mushrooms! Delicious as always :)
Anna on 2022-05-14 (5 stars): You do the best recipes!! The way you explain them, add notes and suggestions. So user friendly. You're always my go-to site for recipes. Thank you!
