Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 60 grams rye flour
- 60 grams all-purpose flour
- 240 milliliters whole milk
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoons unsalted butter, for greasing the pan
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Place a muffin tin or popover pan in the oven to warm while you prepare the batter.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the rye flour, all-purpose flour, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until they are fully blended. Gradually add the milk to the eggs, whisking constantly to ensure a smooth mixture.
Slowly pour the egg and milk mixture into the dry ingredients, whisking thoroughly to create a smooth batter.
Stir in the melted butter until fully incorporated.
Carefully remove the preheated pan from the oven and quickly grease each cup with a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.
Fill each cup about halfway with the batter, working quickly to maintain the pan's heat.
Place the pan back into the oven and bake for 15 minutes at 450°F (230°C). Do not open the oven door during this time, as the popovers need consistent heat to rise properly.
After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 15 minutes until the popovers are golden brown and crisp.
Remove the pan from the oven and carefully transfer the popovers to a wire rack to avoid sogginess from trapped steam.
Serve warm and enjoy!
