Heating the milk briefly with the garlic infuses the milk with a subtle garlic flavor and makes the butter easier to incorporate. You can bake popovers in a special popover pan, glass custard cups or standard muffin tins; either way, preheat the cups so the batter can crawl up the sides and rise to full capacity. The garlic is pretty subtle in these, but you can easily leave it out if you choose. See below for more tips.

Tips:
1. The whole wheat flour in these gives them a little more heft than a traditional popover. So if you like a lighter popover, use all white flour.
2. The Husband does not like an assertive garlic presence in his food, so instead of mincing the garlic, I cut it in half and just before adding the milk to the batter, I removed the garlic. There was a nice hint of garlic without it being overpowering.
3. Make sure that your baking tins or cups are really hot and your oven is thoroughly preheated to get the maximum rise out of the popovers.
