Method
- 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, whisk the eggs together with the salt, black pepper, and dried thyme until well blended.
- 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of the avocado oil in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook, breaking it into bite-sized morsels with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 6 minutes.
- 3
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the browned Italian sausage to a plate, leaving the rendered fat in the pan. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of avocado oil and the sweet potato cubes to the skillet.
- 4
Cook the sweet potato over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the edges are golden and the cubes are fork-tender, about 7 minutes.
- 5
Spread the sweet potato evenly across the pan and return the Italian sausage to the skillet, distributing it evenly. Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the whisked eggs over the mixture, gently shaking the pan to let the egg settle into all crevices.
- 6
Cook undisturbed on the stovetop for 2 minutes until the edges of the frittata begin to set.
- 7
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake until the frittata is puffed and the center is just set, about 6 minutes. Let rest for 2 minutes before slicing into 4 generous wedges.
For effortless weekday mornings, roast the diced sweet potatoes and brown the sausage the night before, then reheat them in the skillet just before pouring in the eggs.
