Typically when I escape the house the boys either consume leftovers or otherwise fend for themselves for dinner, but I decided to be kind since I was leaving them on a weekend and whip up something for them before I left. The easiest way to my husbands heart is brinner (breakfast for dinner) so I went with that.
When these came out of the oven, I was barely able to make myself leave the house. The entire place smelled like an Italian bakery.
If you've never had a popover, it's basically a cross between the best dinner roll you've ever had and a souffle. They are light and airy on top, and taste almost a little eggy, like a souffle. These are made by layering Italian sausage and garlic at the bottom, covering with smoky cheese, and then pouring the blender-whipped batter on top. Then they "pop over" the muffin tin into these heavenly pillows of deliciousness. Then you pour maple syrup on top, if your heart desires.
I cannot claim credit for this recipe. Every amazing recipe that I make (that isn't either a derivative of a family recipe, a fabulous Pinterest, or a happy accident that I come up with myself) basically comes from either Giada De Laurentiis or Ree Drummond. This one happens to belong to Giada.
I met her in person once. She's just as darn cute and kind and gracious as she seems on TV.
Click here for the full recipe. Hers calls for smoked mozerella, but I couldn't find any at my grocery store, so I used smoked provalone. It was epic.
The popover looks lonely and afraid. He was no match for me. Muahahaha. |
Any recipes that you guys have made lately that you're in love with? Any other popover lovers out there? I'm ready to start cooking some fall foods in the next few weeks, and this one certainly fit the bill.
