Parmesan Popovers
An easy recipe for a tasty popover. Appropriate for many occasions as a side dish.
Yield: 4 servings
Time: 45 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 cup self-rising (225 g) flour. If you don’t have self-rising flour mix 1 cup all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/4 tsp salt.
- 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 Tbsp grated Parmesan
- 1 cup (240 ml) milk
- 2 large eggs
- salt and pepper
- extra butter for greasing muffin pans
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C)
Grease a muffin pan with butter and place in the oven to heat. Melt 1 tablespoon butter over low heat in a small saucepan. Set aside. Sift flour in a bowl.
Combine melted butter, milk, eggs, salt, and pepper in a mixer and process it for 1 minute. With the motor running, add flour gradually and process it until well combined.
Remove muffin pan from the oven. Fill each greased muffin cup two-thirds full and top each with a generous teaspoon of grated Parmesan cheese. Fill any empty muffin cup with water to prevent scorching.
Bake popovers for 15 minutes at 450°F (230°C). Without opening the oven door, reduce temperature to 350°F (175°C) for another 20 minutes, or until popovers are puffed, golden and crispy on top.
Serve immediately.
