Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Place a standard 6-cup popover pan (or muffin tin) in the oven while it preheats to ensure the pan is hot.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, salt, and ground black pepper.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and milk until well combined. Slowly whisk the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until smooth. Avoid overmixing.
Stir in the melted butter, fresh chives, and parsley until evenly distributed.
Carefully remove the hot popover pan from the oven. Spray each cup with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Evenly divide the batter into the six cups of the hot pan, filling each about halfway full.
Place the pan back in the oven and bake for 15 minutes at 450°F (232°C). Do not open the oven during this time to prevent the popovers from collapsing.
After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the popovers are golden brown and puffed.
Remove the popovers from the pan immediately and place them on a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm.
