METHOD
To prep
Thinly slice sweet potato and tomato using a mandolin. Remove the stem off all the spinach.
Place just egg liquid, all-purpose flour, and baking powder in a mixing bowl. Combine together using a whisk and set aside.
Set the oven to 375℉.
To cook
Toss the sweet potatoes and seasoning in a non-stick or cast-iron skillet with some melted vegan butter. Cook on low heat for 3 minutes with the lid on.
Add the spinach and let it wilt for another couple of minutes, then pour in ¼ cup of the Just Egg liquid mixture, stirring everything together.
Top the “egg” mixture with broken-up vegan cheese slices, then pour the rest of the Just Egg mixture over the top and disperse the slices of tomatoes and jalapeños.
Keeping the frittata in the skillet, bake it for 15 minutes covered with the lid. Then remove the lid and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the center is set. Note: It’s essential to make sure your skillet is oven-safe before baking the frittata.
Carefully remove your vegan frittata from the oven and let it cool for approximately 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
NOTES
Mandolin: Use a mandolin for uniform slicing of the vegetables.
Skillet: Ensure your non-stick skillet is oven-safe for high temperatures.
Cooling: Let the frittata cool for 10 minutes before slicing to ensure it sets properly.
Preparation: Prepare the ingredients ahead of time for a quicker morning assembly.
Cast iron: Use a cast-iron skillet for the best heat distribution.
Monitor the oven: Keep an eye on the vegan frittata as it bakes to prevent it from overcooking or drying out.
