# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • Its the kind of breakfast that makes you feel like you have your life together, even when you absolutely dont
  • The texture is impossibly fluffy, almost like a cloud that happens to be packed with protein
02 -
  • Do not skip the oil brush, I learned this the hard way and spent ten minutes prying stuck frittata from a pan
  • Air fryers vary wildly, so start checking at twelve minutes even if you want to go longer
03 -
  • Cut vegetables into uniform small pieces so they cook evenly and you get every flavor in each bite
  • Let your eggs come to room temperature before whisking, they incorporate air much more readily
