Tunisian-Style Baked Frittata With Carrot And Harissa

This baked frittata recipe is an easy make-ahead breakfast that’s gluten-free, vegetarian, healthy, and so flavorful! You’ll love the combination of warming North African spices, fresh parsley, and sweet carrots. It’s baked in the oven so there’s no flipping and no fuss!

This unique frittata plays up the sweetness of carrots, caramelizing them with onions and garlic to form a decadent gluten-free “crust.” It’s topped with an egg mixture loaded with fresh parsley and warm, earthy spices, like ras el hanout and spicy harissa, which bring a distinctly North African flavor. And it stores and reheats well! Serve as a healthy breakfast or lunch with harissa sauce for spooning over top, assorted olives, and/or a fresh tomato cucumber salad.
