Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 as needed unsalted butter or nonstick spray (for greasing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a popover pan or a standard muffin tin on the middle rack to heat along with the oven.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt to combine.
In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs until smooth and fully incorporated.
Gradually add the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, whisking continuously to create a smooth, lump-free batter.
Whisk in the melted butter until fully combined.
Remove the hot pan from the oven and quickly grease each cup with butter or nonstick spray. Be cautious as the pan will be extremely hot.
Pour the batter into the prepared cups, filling each about halfway.
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.
After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 20 minutes until the popovers are golden brown and puffed.
Carefully remove the pan from the oven and transfer the popovers to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm.
