1 cup milk
2 large eggs
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup finely diced cooked ham
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives (optional garnish)
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or use popover pans.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and pepper.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Gently fold in the diced ham and shredded cheddar cheese.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the popovers are puffed, golden brown, and set.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh chives if desired.
Notes
For best results, ensure your oven is fully preheated before baking.
Do not open the oven door during the first 15-20 minutes of baking, as this can cause the popovers to deflate.
These popovers are best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be reheated in a warm oven for a few minutes.
