Instant Pot Frittata with Spinach and Mushrooms

At first, I wasn’t going to post this Instant Pot Frittata with Spinach and Mushrooms, because I wasn’t super happy with the photo.  I should have gotten one of it sliced and from the side so you could see the texture.  But this frittata was so good, I didn’t want to have to wait to share until I took better photos!

I love frittatas.  They are one of my goto “clean out the fridge” easy weeknight dinner.  So, I wanted to find out if a frittata would work in the Instant Pot.  I found this recipe in The Essential Instant Pot Cookbook and it sounded like a good one to try.  I love the spinach mushroom combination.

The Instant Pot is great for making frittatas!

Not only did it work, but we loved it!  It was perfectly cooked with a nice texture.  I did note that the ingredients rose to the top, whereas when I make a frittata on the stove, the ingredients tend to sink to the bottom.  I was afraid that I would miss the browned bottom part of the frittata, but I didn’t miss it at all – and the ease of using the Instant Pot more than made up for it.

I plan on redoing some of my favorite frittatas:  Sweet Potato and Baby Spinach Frittata and Swiss Chard Frittata for the Instant Pot.

Ingredients

• 12 eggs
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 cups baby spinach
• 1 cups cremini mushrooms sliced
• 1 clove garlic minced
• 1/4 cup oil-packed sundried tomatoes chopped
• 1/3 cup parmesan cheese grated
• 2 tablespoons parsley chopped, optional for garnish

Instructions

1. Using butter or non-stick spray lightly coat a 7-cup heatproof glass container.  

2. Create a sling from aluminum foil by folding a 20 inch long piece in half lengthwise twice.  Center the glass container on the sling.  Pour 2 cups of water into the Instant Pot and set the trivet inside.  

3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper.  Then stir in the spinach, mushrooms, garlic, tomatoes and cheese. 

4. Pour the mixture into the glass container and cover tightly with foil.  Using the foil sling that you created, lift the container and place it in the pressure cooker on top of the trivet.  Fold over the edges of the sling. 

5. Secure the lid and set the vent knob to sealing.  Using the manual setting set the time to 25 minutes at high pressure. 

6. When the machine beeps, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes and then do a quick pressure release by moving the vent knob to venting.  Open the pot, and remove the container using the sling that you created and heat proof mitts.   Carefully uncover the foil, it will be steamy.  

7. Cut into wedges and sprinkle with parsley to serve.
