Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 0.25 cup vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup matzo meal
- 4 large eggs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin or baking sheet.
In a medium saucepan, combine the water, vegetable oil, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
Reduce the heat to low and gradually stir in the matzo meal until the mixture forms a thick dough. Remove from heat and let the dough cool slightly for 3-5 minutes.
Transfer the dough to a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition until the dough is smooth and sticky.
Using a spoon or your hands, scoop portions of the dough and place them into the prepared muffin tin or shape them into small mounds on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the popovers are golden brown and puffed up.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
