    Cooking Turkey Bacon in the Oven

    An oven is an excellent tool for cooking a large quantity of crispy bacon in a single batch. Preheat the oven to 400 F. Place turkey bacon strips on a parchment-lined tray, lining them side by side. Bake the bacon for 18-20 minutes, checking on it halfway through.

    Ingredients

    • Large Eggs (room temperature)
    • Seasonings - Salt, pepper, garlic powder
    • Fresh Baby Spinach (sliced thin)
    • Turkey Bacon (cooked and diced)
    • White Cheddar (shredded)
    • White Onion (diced small)

    See the recipe card for ingredient quantities.

    1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin, and set it aside.
    2. Toss the bacon pieces, chopped spinach, diced white onion, and shredded white cheddar. Evenly divide the mixture between the 12 cups.
    3. Whisk up the eggs in a large bowl—season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Divide the mixture among the 12 greased cups of the muffin tin.
    4. Bake the frittatas for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes clean.

    Substitutions

    • White Cheddar - Sharp Cheddar, Feta, Pepper Jack Cheese, Parmesan
    • Turkey Bacon - Pork Bacon, Ham
    • White Onion - Red onion, Scallions, Chives

    Storage

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How do you know when mini frittatas are done baking?

    Bake frittatas until the centers are no longer jiggly and the edges are golden brown. The interior should remain moist and fluffy, while the exterior will be set and subtly golden.

    How do you reheat bacon cheddar mini frittatas?

    From the refrigerator, wrap the frittata in a paper towel and heat for about 30-45 seconds. If grabbing from the freezer, heat for 30 seconds, and then 15-second increments until heated through. For best results from frozen, pull the mini frittatas out of the freezer and refrigerate overnight.
