Directions

1 Heat oven to 375°F. In 6-cup popover pan or 6 regular-size muffin cups (2 3/4x1 1/4 inches), brush 1/2 teaspoon of the oil over bottom and side of each cup. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of the flour over bottom and side of each cup.
2 Unroll dough sheet on cutting board. Sprinkle with garlic salt; spread with pesto. Top with pepperoni, arranging slices in 6 rows by 3 rows. Sprinkle with cheeses.
3 Using pizza cutter, cut dough in half lengthwise, then cut each half crosswise into thirds to make 6 equal pieces. Starting at short end, roll up each piece; place seam side down in popover cup so center of dough piece is on bottom and ends of dough are facing up (filling will show).
4 Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until tops are golden brown. Using knife or metal spatula, remove popovers from pan. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.

I loved these! They were easy and quick to make. I took them to a party, and everyone commented on how good they were. I couldn't find the crescent roll sheets, so I had to use the regular rolls. I cut it into 8 popovers. I didn't have any garlic salt, so I used some roasted garlic in oil that came in a jar. I can't wait to make them again for the next party I go to!

Made these today and they were a huge hit. Even made them with turkey pepperoni. I thought they were very flavorful and moist. Will definitely make again.

These are cute little popovers. Tasty, but they need a little moisture. Dipping them in some warm marinara with a bit of hot sauce seems to be just the remedy. Fun to dip and nibble!
