Fluffy, golden, and bursting with savory flavor, these Garlic Popovers are the ultimate side dish to elevate any meal. Made with a simple batter of all-purpose flour, whole milk, eggs, and melted butter, these light and airy delights get a gourmet twist from creamy roasted garlic paste. Baked to perfection in a hot pan for irresistibly crisp edges and a tender interior, these popovers are easy to prepare yet utterly impressive. A sprinkle of fresh parsley adds a pop of color and freshness, making them the perfect pairing for hearty soups, holiday roasts, or even as a stand-alone snack. With just 10 minutes of prep and minimal ingredients, these quick, homemade popovers are a delicious way to bring bakery-quality bread to your table.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Place a standard muffin or popover pan in the oven to preheat as well.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and roasted garlic paste until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking gently to form a smooth batter. Be careful not to overmix.
Carefully remove the preheated pan from the oven and generously spray each cup with non-stick cooking spray.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cups, filling each about halfway full.
Place the pan back in the oven and bake for 20 minutes at 450°F. Do not open the oven door during this time, as the popovers need consistent heat to rise.
After 20 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (177°C) and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the popovers are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the popovers from the oven and let them cool slightly before removing them from the pan. Garnish with minced fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
