Popovers

Kelsey Carr

Report

Popovers – American version of Yorkshire pudding. Popovers are tender, airy, hollow rolls surrounded by burnished crust, so yummy and addictive.

Instructions

If the eggs and milk are cold, submerge the whole eggs in warm water for 10 minutes and heat the milk until just warm. Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C) with a nonstick popover pan on the rack in the lowest position.
Combine the eggs and milk in a large bowl and whisk vigorously until very frothy, about 1 minute. Add the flour and salt, and whisk until the batter reaches the consistency of heavy cream, with some small lumps and air bubbles remaining.
Remove the popover pan from the oven and coat it with cooking spray. Fill each popover cup about three-quarters (75%) full of batter. Bake for 20 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 350°F (176°C) and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes more.
Remove the popover pan from the oven and turn the popovers out onto a wire rack immediately. Poke a small opening in the side of each with a paring knife to let the steam escape. Serve immediately.

Notes

Sweet Popover Variations
You can beat the batter with a electric hand mixer or stand mixer. Whisking by hand will produce the most tender and airy popovers.
If you use muffin pan, reduce baking time by 5 minutes and use only the outer cups of the muffin pan for better air circulation in the oven.
Cinnamon Sugar:Combine 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Brush top of baked popovers with 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, then coat in cinnamon sugar.
Dark Chocolate:Sprinkle 2 ounces chopped semi-sweet chocolate over batter-filled popover cups.
Orange:Whisk finely grated zest of 1 orange (about 2 teaspoons) into batter.
