Equipment
- Popover pan or muffin tin
- Mixing bowl
- Whisk
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Ladle
- Oven mitt
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs at room temperature
- 1 cup whole milk also room temperature
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Extra butter for greasing the pan
Instructions
- Set your oven to 450°F right away.
- This high heat is crucial for popovers.
- Let it heat for at least 15 minutes.
- Grease your popover pan with butter generously.
- Crack eggs into your mixing bowl.
- Add the milk and whisk together well.
- Pour in the flour and salt gradually.
- Whisk until the batter is smooth.
- Add melted butter and mix again.
- Some small lumps are totally fine.
- Pour batter into each cup halfway full.
- Don't fill them to the top.
- Leave room for the popovers to rise.
- They'll puff up a lot during baking.
- Put the pan in the hot oven.
- Bake for 20 minutes at 450°F.
- Then reduce heat to 350°F without opening.
- Bake for 15 more minutes until golden.
- Don't open the oven door at all.
- This keeps them from collapsing.
- Remove popovers from the oven carefully.
- Poke each one with a knife tip.
- This releases steam and keeps them crispy.
- Serve them right away while they're hot.
Notes
- Room temperature ingredients are absolutely essential here.
- Cold ingredients won't rise as well.
- Grease your pan really well every time.
- This prevents sticking and helps with browning.
- Never open the oven door while baking.
- The temperature drop will make them fall.
- Fill cups only halfway for maximum puffiness.
- Serve popovers immediately after baking for best texture.
- They taste best when they're fresh and hot.
