Perfect Popovers

By ccavaletti

Ingredients

• 2 large eggs, at room temperature
• 1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

Preparation

Step 1

Position a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat to 450 degrees.

Grease a standard popover pan. Using a blender, mix the eggs, milk, flour and salt at low speed until just combined, about 20 seconds. Add the melted butter; blend for 10 seconds.

Pour about 1/3 cup of the batter into each prepared cup (filling about halfway).

Bake for 20 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees . Bake until puffed, golden and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes.

Using a small, sharp knife, carefully cut around the sides of each popover to release. Serve immediately.
