  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, or heavy cream and Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside.
  2. Prepare the cherry tomatoes, mozzarella pieces, and fresh basil.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet on MED-HIGH, then add the olive oil. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and gently shake it to distribute evenly.
  4. Place the skillet into the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 10 minutes, or until the eggs are set.

  6. Remove the skillet from the oven and top the frittata with the fresh basil leaves. Serve warm and enjoy!
