Step-by-Step Instructions for Four Cheese Frittata
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a cast iron skillet or an ovenproof pan with butter or oil.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth and slightly frothy. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
  3. Fold in the cheddar, mozzarella, parmesan, and cream cheese into the egg mixture until evenly distributed.
  4. Pour the mixture into the skillet and cook over medium heat for about 4-5 minutes, until the edges start to set.
  5. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
  6. Let the frittata cool for about 5 minutes, then garnish with fresh herbs if desired and slice for serving.
