Servings: 12 popovers
Calories: 77kcal
Equipment
- Blender
Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten-free flour mix about 140 grams
- ¼ tsp. xanthan gum
- ½ tsp. salt
- 4 large eggs room temperature
- 2 Tbsp. unsalted plant-based butter melted
- 1 ¼ cup almond milk 70 - 80 F
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin pan.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, xanthan gum, and salt. Set aside.
- In a blender, add the room-temperature eggs, butter, and almond milk. Blend on medium speed for about 10 seconds, until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Add the dry ingredients to the blender and blend on medium speed for 15 seconds, until smooth.
- Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. The batter should be runny enough that you won’t need to scrape the sides of the blender.
- Bake at 400°F for 22 minutes. Then, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 10–15 minutes, until the rolls are a deep golden color.
- Using a sharp knife, pierce each popover to release the steam.
- Remove the popovers from the pan and serve immediately.
- Serve with butter, jam, garlic butter, or just brush the tops with olive oil and a sprinkling of coarse salt.
Notes
Success Tips
- Use room temperature eggs and warm milk to support proper rise.
- Batter should be thin and pourable (not thick).
- Fill cups only 2/3 full to allow expansion.
- Do not open the oven during baking.
- Release steam immediately after baking to prevent collapse.
Doneness Cues
- Deep golden brown exterior.
- Firm, crisp shell.
- Hollow interior when cut.
- Feels light relative to size.
Storage & Reheating
-
- Best eaten fresh the same day.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 1–2 days (texture declines).
- Reheat in oven at 350°F for 5–8 minutes to restore crispness.
- Freezing is not recommended (loss of texture).
