Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

5 large eggs at room temperature
1 1/2 cups milk, lukewarm
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
3 tablespoons melted butter, cooled so that it is warm not hot

Steps:

Position rack on the lower half of your oven so that your popovers have room to rise. Place the un-greased popover pan in the oven to warm.
In a food processor or blender, combine the eggs, milk and salt. Process for a few seconds until just combined. You should not see streaks of yolk.
Scrape down sides of your blender or food processor bowl to get any flour off the sides. There should not be any big lumps in the batter.
The batter should be slightly frothy on top, as shown in the photo above.
Carefully remove heated popover pan from oven and spray well with PAM or other cooking spray.
Fill each mold about 3/4 high.
Place pan on lower rack in oven and bake for 20 minutes. Do not open the oven door.
Do not open the oven door for first 10 minutes. After 10 min you can check periodically for doneness. Popovers are done when they are a deep golden brown.

Ingredients

1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus softened butter for greasing pans
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups milk, at room temperature

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Generously grease aluminum popover pans or Pyrex custard cups with softened butter. You'll need enough pans to make 12 popovers. Place the pans in the oven for exactly 2 minutes to preheat. Meanwhile, whisk together the flour, salt, eggs, milk, and melted butter until smooth. The batter will be thin. Fill the popover pans less than half full and bake for exactly 30 minutes. Do not peek.

BULLOCK'S TEA ROOM POPOVERS

Bullock's Tea Room Popovers image

Bullock's Tea Room was noted for their delicious and very popular popovers. They are easy to make. The secret is to place the custard cups far apart enough on the baking sheet so that all sides of each popover get the same blast of heat needed to rise evenly. Muffin tins don't work well with popovers. This recipe makes a high-rising puffy popover, that can be served at any meal of the day.

PERFECT POPOVERS

Perfect Popovers image

By adding cheese (such as Parmesan), sugar, or spices to the batter, popovers can be suited to any occasion. For ease of use, a popover pan with a nonstick coating is the ideal baking vessel for popovers, but you can also use six-ounce custard dishes or a muffin tin.This recipe was featured on Martha Stewart Living TV.
