Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 spears fresh asparagus, cut in half
1 serving cooking spray (such as Pam®)
¼ cup milk
4 large eggs
4 teaspoons maple syrup
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ onion, diced
¼ cup shredded Swiss cheese

Steps:

  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add asparagus, cover, and steam until tender, 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 6 muffin cups with cooking spray.
  • Whisk milk, eggs, maple syrup, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
  • Place 1 asparagus half and about 1 teaspoon onion into each of the prepared muffin cups. Pour about 1/4 cup egg mixture into each muffin cup; sprinkle each with Swiss cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until frittatas are golden and puffed, about 25 minutes. Remove promptly and let cool only a few minutes, as they will deflate, like a souffle.
