Popovers Recipe

Popovers Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup milk (preferably whole milk)
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
• Additional melted butter or oil for greasing the pan

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Place a popover pan or muffin tin in the oven to heat.
2. Prepare Batter:
   • In a bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
   • In another bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Add the milk and 1 tablespoon of melted butter, and mix well.
   • Gradually add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, whisking until smooth. The batter should be the consistency of heavy cream.
3. Grease Pan:
   • Carefully remove the preheated pan from the oven. Quickly grease the pan with melted butter or oil to prevent sticking.
4. Fill Pan:
   • Pour the batter into the prepared pan, filling each cup about halfway.
5. Bake:
   • Place the pan in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
   • Without opening the oven, reduce the temperature to 350°F (177°C) and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the popovers are golden brown and puffed up.
6. Serve:
   • Remove the popovers from the pan and serve immediately. They can be enjoyed plain, with butter, or with sweet or savory toppings.

Tips:

• Ensure the batter is smooth to avoid lumps.
• Preheating the pan helps achieve a good rise and crisp exterior.
• Serve popovers immediately as they tend to deflate quickly after being removed from the oven.
