  • Popover Batter:
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk
  • 2 tablespoons (30 grams) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (65 grams) all-purpose flour

Preparation

Step 1

Apple Popover: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) and place the rack in the center of the oven.
Apples: In a large 9- or 10- inch (23 or 25 cm) heavy nonstick ovenproof skillet, melt the butter. Add the sliced apples, sugar, and cinnamon and sauteed the apples just until tender.
Popover Batter: In your food processor or blender place all the batter ingredients. Process for about 45 - 60 seconds, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Once the batter is completely smooth, pour over the sauteed apples.
Bake for about 20 minutes or until the popover is puffed and golden brown. Do not open the oven door until the end of the baking time or it may collapse. Serve immediately with a dusting of confectioners sugar and softly whipped cream.
