How to Make Bacon Cheddar Popovers

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Coat a standard 8-cup muffin/popover pan with non-stick cooking spray. Fill any empty cups with water to prevent burning.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs and 1 1/2 cups milk until light and frothy.
  5. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese, 4 slices cooked and crumbled bacon, and 2 tablespoons chopped scallions.
  7. Fill each popover cup 3/4 full.
  8. Bake for 15 minutes at 450°F (232°C).
  9. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (177°C) and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
  10. Important: Keep the oven door closed during baking to prevent the popovers from deflating.
  11. Remove popovers from the oven and immediately remove them from the pan to cool slightly.
  12. Gently pierce the sides of each popover with a knife to release steam.
  13. Serve warm and enjoy!
