Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

300g (10.5 oz) butternut squash, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil, divided
Sea salt and cracked black pepper
6 eggs
1 cup (250ml) half-and-half
1/3 cup (25g) finely grated Parmesan, plus more to serve
20g (1/2 teaspoon) unsalted butter
1/2 cup marjoram leaves
1/2 cup (60g) grated cheddar
100g (3 1/2 oz) blue cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Place the pumpkin in a bowl and add 1 tablespoon oil, salt and pepper. Toss to combine and transfer to a lightly greased oven tray lined with non-stick baking paper. Roast for 12-15 minutes or until golden.
  • Meanwhile, place the eggs, half-and-half, Parmesan, salt, and pepper in a large bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Heat a 22cm (8-inch) ovenproof non-stick frying pan over low heat. Add the remaining oil and the butter and swirl to cover base and edges of the pan. Add the egg mixture and cook for 5 minutes or until the edges begin to set. Top with the pumpkin, marjoram, cheddar and blue cheese and cook for a further 15 minutes. Transfer to the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the frittata is just set. Sprinkle with Parmesan and slice to serve.

This frittata is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids loved the sweet flavor of the pumpkin and the gooeyness of the cheese.

I was a bit skeptical about the combination of pumpkin and blue cheese, but I was pleasantly surprised. The flavors worked really well together and the frittata was very satisfying.

I've made this frittata several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's a great way to use up leftover pumpkin puree and it's also a nice change from the usual bacon and cheddar frittata.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weekday breakfast or lunch. I like to add some chopped spinach or kale to the frittata for an extra boost of nutrition.

Followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The frittata was cooked evenly throughout and had a nice golden crust. The flavors were delicious and I especially enjoyed the pop of flavor from the blue cheese.

This frittata was easy to make and turned out beautifully. I used a combination of goat cheese and blue cheese, and it was a great way to use up leftover pumpkin puree. Definitely a keeper!

I'm not usually a fan of blue cheese, but it worked surprisingly well in this dish. The pumpkin and marjoram mellowed out the sharpness of the cheese, and the end result was a delicious and savory frittata.

Wow, this frittata was a hit at our brunch! The flavors of pumpkin, marjoram, and blue cheese were perfectly balanced, and the texture was light and fluffy. I'll definitely be making this again.
