Equipment
- Cast Iron Popover Pan
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour white
- 2 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon confectioners sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F with the pan inside oven.
- Add eggs to medium mixing bowl and beat lightly.
- Stir in the remaining ingredients until a fluffy batter forms.
- Spray cast iron popover pan with buttered cooking spray.
- Fill each cup ¾ full.
- Bake for 20 minutes at 450° F, then reduce the heat to 350° F and bake 15-20 minutes more. Remove from pan immediately and poke holes in the side to release the steam to keep them from deflating.
- Sprinkle with confectioners sugar and serve hot.
Notes
- Use room temperature eggs and milk to ensure a smooth batter and better rise.
- Grease your popover pans generously with butter-flavored cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Avoid opening the oven door during baking to keep the popovers from collapsing.
- Remove the popovers as soon as you remove the pan from the oven and poke holes in them to release the steam. Let popovers cool upside down on a wire rack to keep them crisp and prevent sogginess.
