Churro Popovers
Description
This recipe uses a simple batter combined in a blender and left to rest before baking in a generously greased popover pan. The high initial oven temperature produces a tall, crisp rise, then lowering the temperature finishes baking without burning. Once baked golden brown and puffed, the popovers are cooled slightly before being coated in a cinnamon sugar mixture after brushing with melted butter. The result is a light, tender interior with a crisp exterior and characteristic churro-like sweetness and spice.
The recipe requires no refrigeration during batter rest and yields a batch that can be served warm or at room temperature. These popovers pair well with breakfast or as a sweet snack.
Ingredients
For Popovers
- 3 cups milk I used 2%
- 3½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 6 egg room temperature
- Non-stick cooking spray
For Topping
- ½ cup butter melted
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Heat the milk in the microwave for 2 minutes until it's lukewarm.
- Add the milk, flour, baking powder, salt and eggs to your blender and blend until smooth. Let the batter rest for about an hour. It does not need to be refrigerated.
- Preheat oven to 450℉. Spray popover pan generously with cooking or baking spray. Fill each popover cup almost to the top with batter.
- Place popover pan on a baking sheet and transfer to oven. Bake at 450 F degrees for 15 minutes. Turn down the oven temperature to 375 F degrees and bake for another 25 minutes, or until popovers are golden brown.
- In a shallow plate mix sugar and cinnamon together.
- Let popovers cool until warm to touch. Brush each popover with melted butter, then roll popover through the cinnamon sugar. Repeat with all popovers.
