Pepperoni, eggs, spinach, tomatoes, and cheese, all packed into one quick, tasty dish, that’s the best Air Fryer Pepperoni Frittata for you. It all comes together in under 20 minutes.
Frittata’s one of my go-to breakfasts, whether I’m in the mood for something filling or sharing it with the whole family. There are plenty of times when plain eggs with a bit of salt just don’t do it for me, and an omelette ends up feeling a little too basic. So instead, I head to the pantry and grab whatever fillings I’m craving: cheese, veggies, meat, sometimes even leftovers. It all works.
Frittatas are usually a two-step deal: first on the stovetop, then into the oven to finish. But with this recipe, it’s way simpler. All you need is one appliance: the air fryer. Here’s how to make a Pepperoni Frittata the easy way.

kcalIngredients
4 pieces 4 Large Eggs, whole
1/4 cup 1/4 Fresh whole milk
150 grams 150 cherry tomatoes
1 1/2 tablespoon 1 1/2 unsalted butter, melted
1 cup 1 spinach, sautéed
1/2 cup 1/2 Mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 teaspoon 1 olive oil
1 piece 1 green onion, chopped
2 tablespoons 2 bell pepper, chopped
1/4 teaspoon 1/4 black pepper, or taste
13-14 pieces 13-14 Pepperoni slices
1/4 teaspoon 1/4 salt, or to taste (optional)
2 tablespoons 2 fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
- Slice cherry tomatoes in half.
- Heat a pan or skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
- Toss in halved cherry tomatoes and spinach for three minutes until they soften.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1/4 cup whole milk, melted butter and salt and black pepper.
- Mix until it’s frothy, then stir in the veggies: 1 chopped green, 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, 1 cup sutéed spinach, and around 110 grams or 3/4 of halved cherry tomatoes. Stir gently so as not to tear the vegetables.
- Preheat air fryer to 170°C or 340°F for three minutes, or according to your air fryer’s instructions.
- Grab a silicone mold, cake pan, or any small dish that fits in your air fryer. Give it a quick spray of olive oil, then pour in the egg mixture. Make sure the veggies are spread out nicely. Once it’s in, give the sides a light tap to even things out.
- Place it in the air fryer and set the timer for 12 minutes. You can test if it’s cooked by poking it with a knife or toothpick. If it comes out with a runny egg, you may have to cook it for a few more minutes.
- When there are about 7 minutes left on the timer, carefully take out the basket and sprinkle the remaining cheese or toppings on top. Slide it back in to finish cooking.
- Once cooked, transfer to a clean plate, garnish with chopped parsley, then serve!
