Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 tablespoons Green onions (finely chopped)
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (optional, freshly ground)
- 1 Cooking spray or additional butter (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 6-cup muffin tin or popover pan into the oven to preheat as well.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth and well-combined.
Gradually sift in the flour and salt, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. The batter should be smooth and slightly runny.
Whisk in the melted butter, followed by the chopped green onions, grated Parmesan cheese, and optional black pepper.
Carefully remove the preheated pan from the oven. Grease each cup generously with cooking spray or melted butter to prevent sticking.
Immediately pour the batter evenly into the cups, filling each about 2/3 full to allow room for the popovers to rise.
Place the pan back into the oven and bake for 20 minutes at 425°F (220°C). Do not open the oven door during this time to ensure the popovers puff up properly.
After 20 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the popovers are golden brown and crisp on the outside.
Carefully remove the popovers from the oven. Use a knife to gently release them from the pan, if needed.
Serve immediately and enjoy warm, either on their own or with your favorite butter or spread.
