# How to Make It:

01 - Set oven to 375°F. Generously grease a 6-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or oil.
02 - Warm vegetable oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add scallions and garlic; sauté 1–2 minutes until aromatic. Add spinach, if using, and cook for an additional minute until wilted. Take off heat and let cool briefly.
03 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, black pepper, and salt. Fold in cheese, if using.
04 - Add sautéed scallion and spinach mixture to the whisked eggs. Stir until evenly integrated.
05 - Evenly distribute the mixture into the muffin tin compartments, filling each to about three-quarters capacity.
06 - Bake in preheated oven for 16–20 minutes, until frittatas are well-risen and completely set in the centers.
07 - Allow frittatas to rest in the tin for 2–3 minutes. Release edges with a knife and carefully remove frittatas. Serve warm or at room temperature.
