Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 2 Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted (for brushing)
- 2 tablespoons Cinnamon sugar (optional for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Place a popover pan or a muffin tin in the oven to warm while you prepare the batter.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Slowly whisk in the milk and melted butter until fully combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until the batter is smooth. Avoid overmixing.
Carefully remove the heated pan from the oven and spray the wells generously with nonstick cooking spray.
Fill each well about halfway with the batter, then quickly transfer the pan back into the oven.
Bake for 15 minutes at 450°F, then reduce the heat to 350°F (177°C) and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the popovers are puffed and golden brown. Do not open the oven during baking.
Remove the popovers from the oven and immediately pierce the tops with a sharp knife to release steam, which will help maintain their shape.
Brush the warm popovers with melted butter and, if desired, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar for extra flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy while warm!
