Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 450 degrees.
Lightly coat a 12-cup popover pan or muffin tin with melted butter or oil.

Whisk together the milk, eggs and butter in a large bowl until blended. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.

Place the empty pan in the oven to heat for 7 minutes. Carefully remove from the oven and fill the cups evenly with the batter (this is less messy if you transfer batter to a 4 cup liquid measuring cup).

Bake for 18 - 20 minutes, then lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees. Continue baking until the popovers are deep golden brown, 15 - 18 more minutes.


Cool briefly in the pan before removing and serving. You can reheat cooled popovers in a 350 degree oven for about 5 minutes.
