Preparation

Step 1

1. In a bowl, stir together the flour and salt. Add the eggs and 1 cup of the milk and whisk until smooth. Stir in the remaining 1 cup of milk and the melted butter. Let rest for 30 minutes.

2. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Transfer the batter into a pitcher to make it easier to pour it into the mold. Slide the popover mold into the oven and give it 5 minutes to get hot.

3. Working quickly, brush the mold with vegetable oil and immediately pour in enough batter to come two-thirds up the sides of each cup in the molds and slide the pan into the oven, keeping the oven door open as little as possible. The batter should immediately begin to rise.

4. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the popovers have risen and turned golden brown, Turn the oven down to 300 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for about 10 minutes more to dry them out in the centers.

5. Serve immediately with butter, honey, and jam. Makes 8 large, or 12 small, popovers
