Popovers

  • Total Time: 1 hour 45 minutes
  • Yield: 6 popovers 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups whole milk, at room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon coarse salt (or 1/2 teaspoon regular salt)

Instructions

  1. Add eggs to large bowl and whisk until lightly beaten. Add milk and whisk again until combined. Add flour and salt, and whisk just until combined. Do not overmix.
  2. Let batter rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
  3. While batter is resting, place popover pan on a rimmed baking sheet and place on center rack of oven. Preheat to 450°F. (Preheat for at least 20 minutes to be sure temperature has been reached, or use an oven thermometer.)
  4. Once pan is preheated and batter is finished resting, remove pan from oven and quickly spray generously with cooking spray. Pour batter into popover pan, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  5. Bake at 450°F for 20 minutes, then lower oven temperature to 350°F and continue baking for 20 more minutes.
  6. Remove pan from oven and promptly remove popovers from pan and lay on a wire rack. Pierce the bottom or side of each popover with a sharp paring knife to allow steam to escape.
  7. Serve with butter, jam, Nutella, or whatever your heart desires!

Notes

*Muffin pan variation: Follow all preparation above, using a 12 cup muffin pan in place of the popover pan. Bake at 450°F for 13 minutes then lower temperature to 350°F for 13 minutes.
