    1. Amanda, Whoops! It’s actually 8 ramekins. We’ll update the nutritional data in a few. Thanks for letting us know. 🙂

  1. This was easy and yummy. Even the kids liked it. I added red peppers and a little milk to stretch the eggs. Will definitely make again.

  2. I don’t have ramekins. Could I bake them in a muffin pan? About how much would I put in each one and would I bake it for the same time? Wasn’t sure how much the mixture would rise and don’t want to overfill the pan. Thanks!!

    1. Jessica, Yes muffin tins are fine and fill about 3/4 full or 2/3 if you don’t want to take a chance on overfilling. Yes, bake for the same amount of time. 🙂

  3. Can these be frozen? Why only keep for 1 day? I have made similar recipes, and it said up to 1 week in the fridge.

    1. Hi, Kim. Yes, these can be frozen. We recommend one day in the fridge to maintain the recipe’s freshness and consistency. Thanks!

  4. These sound great but if one frittata is a serving 93 cals wouldn’t be enough for a breakfast. I’m thinking serving 3 to a hungry husband to ensure a fulfilled tum!
