Time 55m

Yield 6 popovers

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 large eggs
2 large egg whites
1 cup whole milk, plus 1 tablespoon
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 ½ tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, divided
1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
¼ cup parmesan cheese, finely grated, plus 1½ tablespoons
½ cup pepperoni, chopped, divided
1 tablespoon fresh basil, thinly sliced, for garnish
1 cup marinara sauce, warm
1 6 cup popover pan

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a blender, combine the eggs, egg whites, milk, and tomato paste. Blend until smooth. Add the oregano, garlic powder, salt, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, and flour and blend on high speed for 2-3 minutes, until completely smooth. Transfer the batter to a liquid measuring cup with a pour spout and let rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, place the popover pan in the oven to preheat.
After resting, fold ¼ cup (30 g) Parmesan and ¼ cup (35 g) chopped pepperoni into the popover batter.
Remove the popover pan from the oven and brush ¼ teaspoon melted butter in each cup, then fill ¾ of the way full with batter. Sprinkle with the remaining pepperoni and remaining 1½ tablespoons Parmesan cheese.
Bake the popovers for 25-30 minutes, or until they appear puffed and dry (do not open the oven door to check).
Garnish the popovers with basil and serve immediately with warm marinara sauce alongside.
Enjoy!
