Maple Asparagus Mini Frittatas

Ingredients

• 3 spears fresh asparagus, cut in half
• 1 serving cooking spray (such as Pam)
• 1/4 cup milk
• 4 large eggs
• 4 teaspoons maple syrup
• Salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1/4 onion, diced
• 1/4 cup shredded Swiss cheese

Directions

Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add asparagus, cover, and steam until tender, 2 to 4 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 6 muffin cups with cooking spray.

Whisk milk, eggs, maple syrup, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.

Place 1 asparagus half and about 1 teaspoon onion into each of the prepared muffin cups. Pour about 1/4 cup egg mixture into each muffin cup; sprinkle each with Swiss cheese.

Bake in the preheated oven until frittatas are golden and puffed, about 25 minutes. Remove promptly and let cool only a few minutes, as they will deflate, like a souffle.
