Heart-Shaped Frittatas Recipe
Are you looking for a romantic way to celebrate your Valentine’s Day, anniversary, or another special occasion? Why not whip up a batch of these Heart-Shaped Frittatas for that special person in your life – or your entire family!
A Frittata is an egg-based Italian dish that tastes similar to a quiche without the crust. It is a perfect dish for incorporating your favorite meats, cheeses and vegetables. You can customize it based on the ingredients you have on hand – or the taste preferences of you and your family!
Need a set of heart-shaped pans? I created my Heart-Shaped Frittatas in these awesome pans – complete with removable bottoms – from Wholeport.
Ingredients
10 Eggs
1 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
1 ½ Cups Cheese (We Used A Blend of Swiss, Mozzarella, Cheddar, Monterey Jack and Asadero Cheese)
1 to 1 ½ Cups Diced Ham
½ Cup Diced Red Pepper
1 Teaspoon Black Pepper
2 Teaspoons Garlic Powder
2 Teaspoons Granulated Onions
½ Teaspoons Lawry’s Seasoned Salt
1 Slice Fresh Mozzarella Cheese Per Frittata
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Butter 6 heart-shaped tart pans.
3. In the bowl of a stand mixer equipped with the whisk attachment, whip together the following ingredients: the eggs, the whipping cream, and all of the seasonings.
4. Reduce the mixer speed to low.
5. Add the cheese, ham, and 1/3 cup of the red peppers. Mix until completely combined.
6. Place the buttered tart pans onto a baking sheet and gently ladle the egg mixture into the buttered tart pans. Be careful! Since the bottoms of the tart pans are removable, you may experience some liquid seeping through the bottom of the pans, so you will want to keep everything as stationary as possible.
7. Gently place 1 slice of fresh mozzarella in the center of each tart pan on top of the egg mixture.
8. Sprinkle the remainder of the red peppers on top of the mozzarella.
9. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
10. Remove the baking pan from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before removing the individual frittatas from the tart pans. If needed, loosen the frittatas with a knife. Use a spatula to separate the frittatas from the removable bottoms.
11. Serve and garnish as desired.

If you have round, you could probably craft it into heart-shaped with just a little extra work.
Have a great day and thanks for the pin!

What a great way to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Thanks for sharing with us at the Four Seasons Blog Hop. I am pinning this to my Valentine’s board for next year.
Thanks so much Betty – I appreciate the pin!
What a cute way to show love on a plate. We all know food is the way to a man’s heart. Great recipe that can be easily altered for food allergies.
I love the look of these and they seem so simple to make! How come I’ve never come across fritattas before? I love the pans as well, I can see them being used for cakes as well as fritatta.
Definitely! I have a larger heart-shaped pan that I used to make a torte with – the recipe is also on my blog! 🙂
Well that’s very cute! I don’t have heart-shaped molds but I’m sure I could just cut them into the shape of a heart!
Definitely! If you’re on a budget, find a heart shaped mold and use it to cut the shape!
Love this! Pinned it for later!
Thanks Deb!
Beautiful breakfast. Your presentation gets an A+ and I will definitely try the recipe.
Thank you so much Jodi!
Oh these are lovely and look so good! A recipe worthy of pinning to be sure!
Oh wow…this looks really tasty, and I love the fact that they are in the shape of a heart.
My Dad got me hooked on frittatas, and I sometimes order them from diner-type eateries. I love when they are loaded with veggies and meat.
Omg yum!! I so want to make these! I’ll definitely be saving this!!
I would love to be served breakfast with so much love! I always need my husband should be a cook, need to look more into this goal ha ha ha
Frittatas have never been my specialty, but I do enjoy cooking. I’m a Pampered Chef consultant, so that sure helps, but then add to that a blogger who talks about food too!
I might just give this recipe a try!
Totally cool – I love it!
Thanks for sharing with us on the Wake Up Wednesday blog hop.

Those turned out so pretty! I love those heart-shaped pans too- there are so many neat things you could do with those!
Such a cute idea! Love trying new things with my cooking.
These sound yummy. I liked that you explained what a frittata is because I really had no idea. I’m pinning this recipe for later, but I will make round ones instead.
CUTE!
wow this sounds good and pretty easy.

Hmm.. k.. I dont know as much about cooking as I know about eating. But il refer this post to my girlfriend so that she could cook a romantic meal for me.
You know, we gals love it when our guys surprise us too! 🙂
Those are seriously adorable! I don’t have heart shaped pans, though, so I usually make heart-shaped pancakes for a delicious V-Day breakfast.
Mmm, those look so good! I wish I saw these before now. I think I will surprise my husband with them anyway. Great post!
These are adorable, too bad I did not find them in time for Valentines Day. Thanks for sharing.
These look amazing! I bet they’d be delicious even if they weren’t heart shaped!
Congratulations!
Your recipe is featured on Full Plate Thursday this week. Have a great weekend and enjoy your new Red Plate!
Come Back Soon,
Miz Helen
Thank you Miz Helen – it’s always an honor to be featured at Full Plate Thursday!
Thanks for sharing this delicious sounding recipe! I’ve been wanting to try making a frittata for some time now, ever since I saw Fabio from Top Chef make one on YouTube. They look so simple and refreshing.
What a cute idea! I love it! I will try this for my daughter one day!
Love these! I love the end result of how cute these look on the plate with the rest of the fixings! I’m all for recipes homemade with love-which makes these perfect! I’ll be adding this to my recipe collection!
I’m going to have to try this. I think my family would love them. I’m always looking for new “breakfast for dinner” ideas because that seems to be the favorite in our house.
Yum! These look delicious and also so cute!
This really looks delicious and so pretty! I didn’t realize how creative you can get with frittata dishes. I need to make more of these and sneak veggies in for the little one!
this is so simple yet cute!! I think I might try these on sunday for brunch! Thanks fos sharing! x
We enjoy eggs in our house. We’re going to have to try this recipe. I’ve pinned this recipe so I won’t forget it. 🙂
Thanks for the pin!
Now this looks delicious. Who knew Frittatas were so easy to make!
These look super yummy! I’m recently gluten free and these look like a great option. I think I may make several in muffin tins and save them for quick breakfasts!
This pictures is making me so hungry! I love those pans!
Frittata is on my favorite breakfast food list! I LOVE the heart molds, and thank you for the site to purchase them. The fruit and sausages on the plate beside this yummy treat are so artfully placed. Food should taste good and be beautiful. Thank you for the recipe!
Those are so, so cute!!!!
Sweet! That is a yummy recipe! I have made heart shaped scones and heart-shaped pancakes before, but never a frittata. What a great idea! Thanks!
