Ingredients
For the Frittatas:
- 4 Scallions White and tender green parts only, thinly sliced
- 10 Eggs Lightly Beaten
- ¼ cup Creme Fraiche plus more for topping
- 1 teaspoon Ground Mustard
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- ½ teaspoon Chipotle Powder
For the Topper:
- ½ pound Fully Cooked Smoked Sausage Spiralized or Shaved or Thinly Sliced
- ½ cup Creme Fraiche
Optional Garnishes
- 1 Fresno Pepper Thinly sliced.
- Fresh Chives
- Green parts of Scallions Thinly sliced.
Instructions
For the Mini Frittatas:
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish, line it with parchment paper, and spray the parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray.
- Dice 4 Scallions and set aside the white and tender green parts for use. Use the dark green parts for garnish.4 Scallions
- In a stand mixer or large mixing bowl with hand mixer, lightly whisk 10 Eggs (jumbo) and ¼ cup Creme Fraiche. Add in the white and tender parts of 4 Scallions (thinly sliced), 1 teaspoon Ground Mustard, 1 teaspoon Paprika, ½ teaspoon Chipotle Powder. Whisk until combined.4 Scallions, 10 Eggs, ¼ cup Creme Fraiche, 1 teaspoon Ground Mustard, 1 teaspoon Paprika, ½ teaspoon Chipotle Powder
- Pour the egg mixture into the lined casserole dish and bake at 325°F for 20 minutes. Check it at that point to see if it has set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean. If not, continue to bake in 5 minute increments.
- Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely. Transfer to a cutting board and slice into approximately 1.5-inch squares.
For the Topper:
- If not spiralizing the Smoked Sausage, just slice it as thinly as possible. You could try a mandolin, but freeze it for ~4 hours first.½ pound Fully Cooked Smoked Sausage
- If you want to spiralize the Smoked Sausage, place it in the freezer to chill for approximately 4 hours before you want to work with it.
- To spiralize using the spiralizer attachment on a stand mixer, cut the frozen Smoked Sausage into roughly 4-inch pieces so that they fit on the spiralizer skewer. Pick your blade of choice. I recommend the Slicing Blade (Small Core) from the Kitchenaid set.
- Using the lowest setting, run the Sausage through the spiralizing blade.
- To crisp up the Smoked Sausage, set the oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and insert a wire rack. Stretch out the spiralized or sliced Smoked Sausage. Roast it in the oven for 10 minutes. Remove and allow to cool slightly.
To Assemble:
- Onto each Frittata square place a 1 teaspoon dollop of Creme Fraiche. Top that with a piece of the Smoked Sausage.½ cup Creme Fraiche
- Optionally, sprinkle on some thin slices of Fresno Pepper, Fresh Chives, or Green Scallions.1 Fresno Pepper, Fresh Chives, Green parts of Scallions
- Serve chilled or at room temperature.
