Easter is right around the corner and we’re still finalizing our menus. One thing we’re definitely having is Appleton Farms Spiral Sliced Double Glazed Brown Sugar Ham from our local ALDI! The ham is super affordable and ALDI is basically a one stop shop for all your Easter needs, and that doesn’t just mean for your meal, they also have really great Easter basket goodies!
Not only are we going to enjoy the delicious ham, but we’re taking a little bit of it, dicing it up and making Ham and Cheese Popovers to add to the menu! The popover recipe couldn’t be easier to throw together, plus they’re so good! I could seriously eat an entire batch of them to myself. The little bits of sweet and salty ham and mild, melty Swiss pairs so well with the custardy popovers. This Easter make sure you stop over at your local ALDI to throw together a delicious and affordable Easter celebration! You can also order all of the ingredients you need on Instacart and have them delivered. Click here for that link, and get $10 off your first three ALDI orders of $35 or more with the code ALDISFB.

Got a popover pan for Christmas as I’ve been wanting to do the popovers I remember as a kid. First time out they didn’t ‘pop’ as much as I’d hoped but 5 out of 6 were well above the rim. Added finely diced ham and a T of grated cheese… maybe that made a difference. Flavor is really good, but will refine my next batch!
i tried these and, while they tasted great, i think the recipe only has half the amount of batter needed to make 12 popovers. when i made these as directed, they did not rise and “pop” – they were simply small ham & cheese muffins, haha! i looked at other recipes and realized that the amount of batter in this recipe was half what it is in others, so I next time i’ll double the batter to be able to make 12 :) thanks for a yummy recipe otherwise!
