Comment:

 Hi there, welcome to WordPress Trac!

 Thanks for the report, we're already tracking this issue in #52764.

 Just to clarify, these extra `<p></p>` tags are not new in 5.7, but they
 are visible now in some scenarios where they were previously hidden. This
 is being tracked in #52764 for WordPress 5.7.1, see comment:8:ticket:52764
 and later comments for some more context.

 As a workaround, this snippet can be added to Appearance → Customize →
 Additional CSS:
 {{{
 body p:empty:before {
         content: none;
 }
 }}}
