I have really enjoyed my WonderMill, but this year I wanted to see how many of my beloved foods I make with my freshly ground whole wheat. This month I decided my beloved breakfast popover was going to get a makeover.
Usually whole wheat is seen as a heavy flour, not one I think of using for recipes like popovers. I thought it would be worth a try at least.
Popovers should be light and use a batter similar to Yorkshire Pudding. For this version I sacrificed a little of the texture to stuff in sausage, onion and a little Parmesan cheese. I think you will be pleased.

Start by breaking out the WonderMill to grind you wheat.

Then brown up some breakfast sausage of your choice to go in the bottom of pre-greased popover pans or regular muffin tins.
Then add the eggs, flour and other ingredients into your blender. Stir in the green onions, fill your wells 3/4 full and then get baking.
