Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, pumpkin puree, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Grease a popover pan or muffin tin with cooking spray or butter. Place the pan in the preheated oven for 5 minutes to heat it up.
- Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven and immediately divide the batter evenly among the wells, filling each about 3/4 full.
- Place the pan back into the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the popovers are golden brown and puffed up.
- Once done, remove the popovers from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly.
- Serve the pumpkin popovers warm with butter, maple syrup, or your favorite fruit preserves.
