Easy Popovers (Yorkshire Pudding)
Description
This recipe for Easy Popovers, also known as Yorkshire Pudding, starts by whisking together room temperature eggs, warm milk, all-purpose flour, and salt to achieve a thin, frothy batter. The batter is poured into a well-oiled popover pan and baked initially at a high temperature of 450°F to encourage rapid rising and puffing. The temperature is then lowered to 350°F to allow the interior to set and develop a golden brown, crispy exterior without collapsing.
The finished popovers have a delicate, crispy crust and a soft, hollow center which can be filled with various accompaniments. Traditionally served with roast meats and gravies, they also work well with butter, honey, or preserves for a simple snack or breakfast addition.
Ingredients
- 4 egg room temperature, large
- 1 1/2 cups milk warm, at around 110F
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt adjust to preference
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Position the rack to the third lowest level in the oven.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the warm milk, flour, and salt. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined and frothy. The batter should be runny.
- Oil the popover pan with cooking spray or butter. Be sure to coat the tops of the pan as well.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, filling each well almost to the top. Bake for 20 minutes at 450°F. Then, lower the temperature to 350°F, and bake an additional 20 minutes. Do not open the oven door.
- Once the popovers are golden brown and crispy on the outside, remove them from the oven. Slice an opening with a small knife on the side of each popover to let any steam escape. Serve warm and enjoy!
