Best 6 Pecan Popovers With Parsley And Thyme Recipes

PECAN POPOVERS WITH PARSLEY AND THYME

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Spray standard 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray, then brush with butter. Place in oven until very hot, about 10 minutes. Combine milk, next 6 ingredients and 2 tablespoons butter in large bowl; whisk until blended. Remove hot muffin pan from oven. Divide batter equally among muffin cups. Sprinkle with chopped pecans.
• Bake popovers 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F; continue to bake until brown and firm, about 15 minutes longer. Brush popovers with 2 tablespoons butter; sprinkle with salt. Turn out of pan, cutting to loosen if necessary; serve immediately.

THYME POPOVERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Generously grease aluminum popover pans or custard cups with softened butter. You'll need enough pans to make 12 popovers. Place the pans in the oven for 2 minutes to preheat. Meanwhile, whisk together the flour, salt, thyme, eggs, milk, and melted butter until smooth. The batter will be thin. Fill the popover pans less than half full and bake for exactly 30 minutes. Do not peek.
• Serve hot.

GRUYERE-THYME POPOVERS

Steps:

• If eggs and milk are cold, before combining, submerge whole eggs in warm water 10 minutes and heat milk until just warm. Preheat oven to 450 degrees with a nonstick popover pan on rack in lowest position.
• After you have combined eggs and milk in a large bowl, whisk together until very frothy. This should only take about 1 minute. Have the flour and salt measured out and ready to go.
• Add flour and salt to egg mixture. We tested out a blender and an electric stand mixer when making the batter, but concluded that whisking by hand produces the most tender, airy popovers.
• Whisk flour and salt into egg mixture just until batter is the consistency of heavy cream with some small lumps remaining. See those air bubbles? They are what will cause the popovers to rise.
• Remove popover pan from oven and coat with cooking spray. If you prefer a standard muffin tin, only coat (and fill) the outer cups; they get better circulation in the oven. (Also, reduce baking time by 5 minutes.)
• Fill popover cups about three-quarters full with batter. Combine thyme and Gruyere. Sprinkle over batter-filled popover cups. Bake 20 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Continue to bake until golden brown and dry to the touch, about 20 minutes more.
• Popovers lose their crunch if they linger in the pan, so turn them out on a wire rack immediately and poke a small opening in the side of each with a paring knife to let the steam escape. Serve right away.

PARSLEY POPOVERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, salt, pepper and parsley. Using a whisk or a mixer, add the milk in a steady stream, working quickly. Combine the egg with 1 teaspoon of the melted butter, and whisk this mixture into the batter.
• Rub a muffin tin well with the remaining 2 teaspoons of butter. Place the tin in the oven, and heat it until it is hissing hot, about 6 minutes. Remove from the oven, and ladle the batter into the hot muffin cups, filling each slightly over half. Return to the oven, and bake for 30 minutes until the popovers are puffed and golden. Do not open the oven during the baking, or the popovers will fall. Serve immediately.

BLUE CHEESE PECAN POPOVERS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spread pecans in ungreased shallow pan. Bake uncovered 6 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until light brown. Cool; finely chop.
• Increase oven temperature to 375°F. In blender, place eggs, flour, milk, 2 tablespoons of the melted butter and the salt. Cover; process until smooth, stopping to scrape down side as needed
• Grease 2 (6-cup) popover pans with remaining 2 tablespoons melted butter. Pour batter evenly into pans, filling cups three-fourths full. Sprinkle with chives, cheese and toasted pecans.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until browned and puffy. Pierce each popover in several places with thin wooden skewer. Bake 5 minutes longer or until crisp. Immediately remove from cups. Serve hot.

LEMON POPOVERS WITH PECAN HONEY BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. In a large bowl, whisk eggs and milk until blended. Whisk in flour and salt until smooth (do not overbeat). Stir in 3 tablespoons pecans, lemon zest and lemon juice., Generously grease a 6-cup popover pan with nonstick spray; fill cups half full with batter. Bake 15 minutes. Reduce oven setting to 350° (do not open oven door). Bake until deep golden brown, 10-15 minutes longer (do not underbake)., Meanwhile, combine butter, honey and remaining 2 tablespoons pecans. Immediately remove popovers from pan to a wire rack. Pierce side of each popover with a sharp knife to let steam escape. Serve immediately with pecan honey butter.
