Does anyone know if this can possibly be baked in one of the pieces of stoneware?? Say by chance the rectangle baker?? I am going to make it for a bridal shower and they need to have 2 made and I only have 1 skillet.
 
How were you planning to saute the veggies and stuff? See if you can borrow a second skillet.

It probably will work in a piece of stoneware, but you would have to take out half of the ingredients to be baked in the stoneware.

I would have the veggies and stuff sauted ahead of time. I was planning on having one bake while I demo the other one (in the skillet).
 
I agree with Chef Kearns. see if you can borrow a second skillet.

Do you have the Simple Additions Large Platter? You could make one recipe ahead and keep it warm in the oven on that platter. I'd be a little concerned the stone might dry out the frittata.
 
Hi there! Yes, this recipe can definitely be baked in stoneware. The rectangle baker would be a great option for making two batches at once. Just make sure to adjust the baking time accordingly, as stoneware tends to heat up and cook a little differently than a skillet. Happy cooking!
