Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Tapioca starch
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy, room temperature)
- 3 Large eggs (room temperature)
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- Cooking spray or additional butter (for greasing pan)
- 1 teaspoon Herbs (such as rosemary or thyme, chopped - for Herb & Garlic variation)
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder (for Herb & Garlic variation)
- 0.5 cup Shredded sharp cheddar cheese (for Cheddar & Chive variation)
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh chives (for Cheddar & Chive variation)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (for Sweet Cinnamon Vanilla variation)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (for Sweet Cinnamon Vanilla variation)
- 1 tablespoon Sugar (for Sweet Cinnamon Vanilla variation)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Place a muffin tin or popover pan in the oven to preheat as well.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, tapioca starch, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter until smooth.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Carefully remove the preheated muffin tin from the oven and lightly grease each cup with cooking spray or butter.
Pour the batter into the greased cups, filling them about 3/4 full.
Bake the popovers in the oven at 450°F (230°C) for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 15 minutes. Do not open the oven door while they're baking, as this could cause the popovers to deflate.
For the Herb & Garlic variation, stir in the chopped herbs and garlic powder into the batter before pouring into the muffin tin.
For the Cheddar & Chive variation, stir the shredded cheese and chives into the batter before pouring into the muffin tin.
For the Sweet Cinnamon Vanilla variation, whisk the cinnamon, vanilla extract, and sugar into the batter before pouring into the muffin tin.
Once baked, remove the popovers from the oven and serve immediately. They are best enjoyed fresh and warm.
