Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 1 cup skim milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a standard 6-cup muffin tin in the oven to warm while you prepare the batter.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat pastry flour and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, skim milk, and melted butter until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth. Avoid overmixing.
Carefully remove the preheated muffin tin from the oven and spray each cup lightly with cooking spray.
Divide the batter evenly among the 6 muffin cups, filling each about halfway.
Immediately place the tin in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the popovers are puffed up and golden brown. Do not open the oven door during baking, as this may cause the popovers to deflate.
Once baked, remove from the oven and serve warm. Enjoy as is or with a diabetic-friendly spread of your choice!
