Instead of folding the eggs together on the stove, the eggs and fillings are combined in a pan and baked to make a firm egg pie that's easy to slice and serve. This recipe starts on the stovetop cooking zucchini with fragrant garlic. Then add the creamy and herby egg mixture before dolloping rich ricotta on top. After a couple of minutes, the edges will set, and into the oven it goes. Make sure to let the frittata cool slightly before serving to get nice, clean slices. Served with a crisp lettuce and tomato salad, this easy recipe is great at dinner or brunch.
