| Introduction |
| Popovers are a wonderful treat, crisp on the outside and moist on the inside.For breakfast with butter and jam they are heaven.They're not difficult to make but it is important to follow the directions exactly to ensure good results. I like to use a mini muffin pan sometimes and add minced herbs and parmesan cheese to the batter for a savory popover. |
| Ingredients |
| 1 cup all purpose flour 1/2 tsp salt 2 large eggs 1 1/4 cups whole milk 1 Tbsp melted butter 12 cup muffin pan
|
| Directions |
| Step: 1 |  Have all the ingredients at room temperature before mixing. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Spray muffin or popover pan with non stick cooking spray.
|
| Step: 2 |  In a large bowl,whisk together the eggs, milk, butter and salt. Mix in the flour until blended. Batter can be a bit lumpy..
|
| Step: 3 |  Fill each muffin 2/3 to 3/4 full. Fill any empty cups on the pan halfway with water to keep the heat even and avoid burning the other popovers.
|
| Step: 4 | Place the pan in the center rack of the oven and raise the heat to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
Bake for 15 minutes and then reduce the heat to 350 degrees and bake for 15 more minutes. DO NOT open the oven door in the first 15 minutes of baking as this can cause the popovers to fall.
Check on the popovers during the second 15 minute baking time, they should be puffed up and a pale golden brown . .Serve immediately.
