Ingredients
  

Popover Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup Vegan Butter melted and cooled (the stick form from Earth Balance is super handy)
  • 1 cup of All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Fresh Herbs chopped (I did 1/2 teaspoon each of sage, thyme, and Oregano)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 3/4 cup Almond Milk
  • 2 Eggs at room temperature

Instructions
 

  • Begin by preheating the oven to 450 degrees and place the popover tin in the oven as it preheats.
  •  
  • Then melt your butter and let it cool if you haven’t already.
  •  
  • When all of your ingredients are ready, add the flour, salt, ground pepper, milk, melted butter, and eggs to a medium-sized mixing bowl (if you have one with a spout then definitely use that) and whisk until the batter is pretty smooth. It’ll be a very thin batter, and that’s what you want!
  •  
  • Then add HALF of the herbs into the batter (reserving the rest to top the popovers) and whisk to combine.
  •  
  • Remove the hot popover tin from the oven and carefully pour the batter into the tins so they are about 2/3’s full. You should get about 10 mini popovers out of this recipe. Then top each popover with the remaining herbs.
  •  
  • Bake the popovers for 15-17 minutes (depending on your oven) until the popovers have risen nicely. Then turn the heat down to 300 degrees and bake for another 8-10 minutes or until the popovers start to turn a golden brown and pull away from the edges of the tin.
  •  
  • Remove the tin from the oven and let the popovers sit in them for 5 minutes. Then carefully transfer them to a wire cooling rack and eat them while they’re still warm. Enjoy!!

Notes

Quick Note: You can use a muffin tin if you don't have a popover tin, but just note they probably will be a bit more dense.
