POPOVERS



Popovers image

Popovers begin with essentially the same batter as Yorkshire pudding. Purists will tell you that what makes Yorkshire pudding so great is that it's cooked in beef drippings. But butter isn't a bad stand-in, and popovers are pretty easy. You can buy special popover pans, with deeper, narrower cups which force the tops up in a more pronounced fashion, but I wouldn't bother. Any muffin pan will produce a perfect popover if the butter is hot, the batter is rich and smooth and the baker is patient. But the patience ends when the popovers are done: they must be eaten right away.

Time 45m

Yield 12 popovers

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 tablespoons melted butter
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon fresh thyme (or 1/2 teaspoon dried), optional

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Drizzle a teaspoon or so of melted butter in each cup of a 12-cup muffin pan or a popover tin and put it in oven while you make batter.
  • Beat together the eggs, milk, 1 tablespoon butter, sugar and salt. Beat in the flour a little bit at a time and add thyme if using; mixture should be smooth.
  • Carefully remove muffin tin from oven and fill each cup about halfway. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 degrees and continue baking for 15 minutes more, or until popovers are puffed and browned. Do not check popovers until they have baked for a total of 30 minutes. Remove from pan immediately and serve hot.

PERFECT POPOVERS



Perfect Popovers image

By adding cheese (such as Parmesan), sugar, or spices to the batter, popovers can be suited to any occasion. For ease of use, a popover pan with a nonstick coating is the ideal baking vessel for popovers, but you can also use six-ounce custard dishes or a muffin tin.This recipe was featured on Martha Stewart Living TV.

Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing tin
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 1/4 cups milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Lightly grease and flour a popover tin.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and 1 tablespoon melted butter. Pour over flour mixture, and fold until just blended.
  • Fill the popover cups two-thirds to three-quarters full.
  • Transfer tin to oven, and bake for 15 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees, and bake until well browned and crusty, about 20 minutes. Remove popovers from the oven, and unmold onto a rack. Puncture the sides with a sharp knife to let steam escape, and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh eggs, milk, butter, and flour will yield the best popovers.
  • Make sure the oven is very hot before baking: This will help the popovers rise quickly and get that light and airy texture.
  • Don't open the oven door while the popovers are baking: This will cause them to collapse.
  • Let the popovers cool slightly before serving: This will help them hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Popovers are a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're easy to make and can be dressed up or down with a variety of toppings. These muffin tin popovers are especially convenient because they can be made in individual muffin tins, which makes them perfect for portion control. Whether you're a seasoned baker or a beginner, I encourage you to give this muffin tin popover recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
