Passover Popovers from Libby's Kitchen

A Passover treat for those sick of trying to make sandwiches out of matzo.....


Ingredients

2/3 cup water
1/3 cup peanut oil (use olive or walnut oil if you consider peanut oil kitniot)
1/2 tsp salt
1 tbsp sugar
1 cup matzo meal
3 extra large eggs

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit. Grease a 6-muffin tin and set aside. In a pot combine water, oil, salt, and sugar. Bring to a boil. Add the matzo meal, remove from the heat and mix well. Allow the mixture to cool slightly. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Divide the mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling the cups 2/3 full. Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes. Lower the heat to 350 degrees and bake for an additional 20 minutes. After removing the tin from oven, pierce the top of each popover with a paring knife to let the center dry out a bit.

Libby says:

I usually double this recipe to fill a 12-muffin tin. Make these during the week of Passover and fill them with the chicken salad you will prepare from all the leftover soup chicken. Tuna salad also works great. These delicious treats break up the monotony of eating matzo sandwiches!
