As many of us are still in holiday mode, brunches are the earliest morning meal we will have. One pan foods are simple to do, fuss-free and totally delicious, including this smoked trout and olive frittata. Not to mention what a great source of protein to get your day started. If you thought a frittata was difficult, think again as we give you the easiest brunch to make to go with that morning coffee.

5. Remove the lid and sprinkle the cheese, onion, smoked trout and olives over the half-cooked egg.
6. Place the pan into the oven (cover the handle with a wet cloth or aluminium foil to prevent it from burning or scorching if it’s not oven-proof)
