This frittata is the perfect fall brunch recipe and is vegetarian for a tasty meal ready in no time.

We grew a ton of butternut squash in our garden this year, so I’ve been having fun coming up with new recipes for it! I actually wanted to make this a quiche, but decided to go crustless after the bakery down the street ran out of dough.  This was such a delicious brunch, and made enough servings so we were able to have leftovers for the week.  An easy autumn breakfast everyone at the table will love!

How Do I Make This Vegetarian Frittata with Butternut Squash Recipe?

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a large 11 inch cast iron skillet, add the olive oil and onions. Sauté over low heat for about 10 minutes until they begin to brown. Add the diced butternut squash and sauté for an additional 10 minutes until the squash begins to soften.
  3. Add the Worcestershire sauce, Herbs de Provence, garlic powder, kale, and stir well to combine.
  4. Crack the eggs into a separate bowl, and add the cheese, milk, salt, pepper, and paprika. Whisk well until the eggs are well scrambled.
  5. Pour the eggs mixture into the Cass iron skillet with the vegetables and quickly combine.
  6. Cook the eggs in the skillet for 4 to 5 minutes until the edges set (do not stir).
  7. Place the frittata in the oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes until the top is lightly browned.
  8. Remove from oven, allow to cool for 10 minutes, and slice to serve.
