Spring into flavor with these airy, herb-packed popovers. **Garlic and chive spring herb popovers** are your next brunch showstopper, blending bold flavors with a light, crispy texture.
Ingredients
- For the batter:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
- 3 large eggs, at room temperature
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 tsp salt
- For the herbs:
- 2 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped

- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt until well combined.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk and melted butter, whisking until smooth.
