Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter (melted, for greasing the pan)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C), and position a rack in the lower third of the oven.
Lightly grease a popover pan or a regular muffin tin with melted butter.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt to combine.
In a separate large bowl, whisk the eggs until they are fully blended, then gradually whisk in the milk until the mixture is smooth.
Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, whisking continuously to create a smooth batter. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared popover or muffin tin, filling each cup about halfway full.
Place the pan in the oven and bake for 15 minutes at 450°F (230°C). Do not open the oven door during this time to ensure the popovers rise properly.
After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for another 15 minutes, or until the popovers are puffed and golden brown.
Carefully remove the popovers from the oven and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before removing them from the pan.
Serve warm with butter, jam, or your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
