Best Popovers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Spray a popover pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place pan on center rack of oven and preheat for 2 minutes.
• Blend flour, salt, eggs, milk, and melted butter until it looks like heavy cream, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Cut chilled butter into 6 even pieces. Place 1 piece of butter in each cup and place pan back in oven until butter is bubbly (about 1 minute).
• Fill each cup half full with batter and bake 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and bake for another 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Grease a 6-cup popover pan with the 1 teaspoon of butter.
• Combine the 1 tablespoon of butter, the flour, salt, eggs and milk in a food processor or blender and process for 30 seconds.
• Divide the batter evenly among the cups of the popover pan, filling each one-third to one-half full. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 40 minutes, taking care not to open the oven door. Remove the popovers to a cooling rack and pierce each one in the top with a knife to allow steam to escape. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Special equipment: muffin tin
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Using a pastry brush, coat 8 muffin cups with 1 tablespoon of the melted butter and put the tin in the oven for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the eggs in a blender until light yellow. Add the warmed milk and blend. Add the flour, salt and remaining melted butter, and blend until smooth. Pour the batter into the warmed muffin tin and return it to the oven to bake until golden, about 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve warm.

Steps:

• If eggs and milk are cold, before combining, submerge whole eggs in warm water 10 minutes and heat milk until just warm. Preheat oven to 450 degrees with a nonstick popover pan on rack in lowest position.
• After you have combined eggs and milk in a large bowl, whisk together until very frothy. This should only take about 1 minute. Have the flour and salt measured out and ready to go.
• Add flour and salt to egg mixture. We tested out a blender and an electric stand mixer when making the batter, but concluded that whisking by hand produces the most tender, airy popovers.
• Whisk flour and salt into egg mixture just until batter is the consistency of heavy cream with some small lumps remaining. See those air bubbles? They are what will cause the popovers to rise.
• Remove popover pan from oven and coat with cooking spray. If you prefer a standard muffin tin, only coat (and fill) the outer cups; they get better circulation in the oven. (Also, reduce baking time by 5 minutes.)
• Fill popover cups about three-quarters full with batter. Bake 20 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Continue to bake until golden brown and dry to the touch, about 20 minutes more.
• Popovers lose their crunch if they linger in the pan, so turn them out on a wire rack immediately and poke a small opening in the side of each with a paring knife to let the steam escape. Serve right away.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in large bowl.
• Half fill greased muffin tins w/ mixture.
• Put in cold oven and set temp to 450 degrees F.
• Bake 15 minutes.
• Reduce heat to 350 degrees F.
• Bake for another 15-20 minutes.
• Test one: make sure it is crispy outside and moist inside.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven for 450°F.
• Make sure the eggs are at room temperature.
• Microwave the milk on high for 2 minutes.
• Take the measured flour, salt, and baking powder, and sift it all together.
• Using a Stand Mixer; on low, slowly mix the milk into the eggs.
• Slowly (on low) add in the sifted ingredients.
• Add in the cinnamon and vanilla.
• Beat this mixture on high for 2 minutes.
• Let the batter rest for 1 hour, at room temperature.
• Pour the batter into a greased popover pan, about halfway up.
• Bake for 15 minutes.
• Lower the oven to 375F and bake for 30-35 minutes longer.
• Eat while hot, serve with butter, honey, or jam.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease and flour six 6-ounce custard cups.
• In a medium bowl beat eggs slightly, Beat in flour, milk and salt until just smooth; being careful not to overbeat. Fill custard cups 1/2 full.
• Bake at 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for 20 minutes. Decrease oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake for 20 minutes more. Immediately remove from cups and serve piping hot.
