Parmesan Popovers
Serves: 4
Preparation time: 45 min.
An easy side dish, appropriate for many occasions.
Ingredients
- 250 gr (1 cup) self-rising flour
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp grated Parmesan
- 250 ml (1 cup) milk
- 2 large eggs
- salt and pepper
- extra butter for greasing muffin pans
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 225°C (450°F)
Grease a muffin pan with butter and place in the oven to heat.
Melt 1 tbsp butter over low heat in a small saucepan. Set aside. Sift flour in a bowl.
Combine melted butter, milk, eggs, salt and pepper in a mixer and process it for 1 minute. With the motor running, add flour gradually and process it until well combined.
Remove muffin pan from the oven. Fill each greased muffin cup two-thirds full and top each with a generous teaspoon of grated Parmesan cheese. Fill any empty muffin cup with water to prevent scorching.
Bake popovers for 15 minutes at 225°C (450°F). Without opening the oven door, reduce temperature to 175°C (350°F) for another 20 minutes, or until popovers are puffed, golden and crispy on top.
Serve immediately.
