Popovers Revision as of Thursday, 28 May 2026 at 13:06 UTC

You’ll need a popover pan for this.

Ingredients

• 2 large eggs
  (~½ cup)
  at room temperature
• 1 cup milk at room temperature (I used whole milk)
• 1 cup flour
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp butter at room temperature

Preparation

Batter

• Whisk milk and eggs together.
• Use ⅓-cup scoops to mix in flour gradually.
• Add salt and butter.
• Whisk away until you get a nice, creamy consistency
• No lumps. Use a blender if necessary. The batter should be able to
  escape a cloth sieve.

Baking

• Preheat oven to 425F.
• Scoop 1 tbsp butter into each popover cup.
• Once oven’s hot, heat pan for 5 minutes. Butter should have browned
  at least a little.
• Remove, fill each cup a third up with batter.
• Return to oven, bake for 20 minutes
• No peeking! Seriously.
• After 20 minutes, reduce temperature to 350F
• Bake for another 15-17 minutes

Stuff face with resulting awesomeness immediately. Have friends available. They taste like shit when microwaved/heated later (even when stored in ziploc.)
