15-Minute Air Fryer Veggie Frittata: Your Fast-Track to a Wholesome Breakfast

15-Minute Air Fryer Veggie Frittata: Quick, Easy & Delicious Breakfast

Introduction

Craving a hot, nourishing breakfast but short on time? This 15-Minute Air Fryer Veggie Frittata delivers fluffy eggs packed with colorful vegetables—ready faster than brewing a fresh coffee. Whether you’re meal-prepping for the week or feeding a hungry crowd, this recipe offers unbeatable simplicity and maximum flavor, all with minimal cleanup.

Why Make an Air Fryer Veggie Frittata?

Unlike stovetop versions, the air fryer gives a perfectly set center and lightly crisp edges in half the time. Customize with whatever veggies you have on hand, and enjoy a balanced breakfast that’s high in protein, light on effort, and bursting with fresh flavor and nutrients. It’s proof that healthy mornings can be deliciously effortless.

Prepping Your Veggies the Easy Way

Speed through your prep with the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper. Dice onions, bell peppers, and more in seconds, ensuring every bite bursts with evenly cooked flavor. Wash and chop your veggies the night before to save even more time at breakfast.

Air Fryer Method for the Frittata

Prepare your air fryer basket with the help of Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll for easy release and no sticking. Pour your egg and veggie mixture directly into a lined, shallow oven-safe dish that fits your air fryer. The COSORI Air Fryer 9-in-1, Compact & Large 6-Qt is ideal for families or cooking multiple portions at once.

How to Customize Your Frittata

Mix in your favorite cheese, leftover roasted vegetables, or diced cooked breakfast meats. Whip your eggs until frothy in the Ninja BL610 Professional 72 Oz Countertop Blender for an ultra-light texture, or stick to a simple whisk for rustic charm. Add a sprinkle of herbs or a dash of hot sauce for an extra kick.

Serving and Storing Made Simple

Slice, serve, and enjoy your frittata hot or pack a wedge in a Bentgo Salad Container for lunch on the go. This frittata is just as good reheated and makes a satisfying snack, lunch, or even a quick dinner.
