Peppery Popovers 2 pts

By

Popovers, puffy mini breads with a crisp brown crust and a tender, moist interior, expand as they bake and “pop over” the sides of the cup-shaped pan.

  • 8

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cups Fat free milk
  • 1 cup white all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon table salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450°F. Spray 8 cups of a popover pan or muffin tin with nonstick spray

In a medium bowl, with an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the eggs until frothy. Beat in the milk, then the flour, salt, and pepper. Spoon 1/4 cup of the batter into each cup. Bake 15 minutes; reduce the oven temperature to 400°F and bake until browned, about 12 minutes longer. Serve at once.

Notes
Use popover pans or single-weight muffin tins. Don’t use insulated tins; they won’t get hot enough to generate sufficient steam.
The dough is very wet. When heated, the moisture turns into steam, which causes a spectacular rise. Take care not to open the oven door while the popovers bake, as this will allow the steam that makes them rise to escape.
