This is a very unique appetizer with a great taste. If you don’t have Roquefort cheese, you can use any other type of strong-flavored crumbly blue cheese (or if you don’t like the taste of blue cheese, try using feta instead).

Weight Watchers Tiny Roquefort Popovers recipe
Makes 24 popovers

Ingredients
3 ounces Roquefort cheese, crumbled

2 eggs, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups milk, at room temperature

3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, parsley, salt and white pepper.
4. In a large measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, milk and butter.

8. Bake for about 10 minutes (do not open the oven door during this time!).

10. Remove the popovers from the oven and immediately transfer them to a napkin-lined bowl or warmed platter.
11. Serve immediately, or let cool on wire racks for up to 2 hours, then reheat in a 350 degrees F oven for about 10 minutes.
