How to Make Quick And Easy Popovers

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Place your muffin tin or popover pan in the oven while it preheats for 10 minutes.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1/2 cup of the milk.
  6. Gradually pour the egg mixture into the well, whisking constantly until a smooth batter forms.
  7. Whisk in the remaining 1/2 cup of milk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
  8. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (this helps develop gluten and leads to fluffier popovers).
  9. Once the oven and pan have preheated, carefully remove the hot pan from the oven.
  10. Brush each cup generously with softened butter.
  11. Fill each cup about 2/3 full with the batter.
  12. Bake for 15 minutes at 450°F (232°C).
  13. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (177°C) and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the popovers are golden brown and puffed up.
  14. **Important:** Resist the urge to open the oven door during baking! This will cause the popovers to deflate.
  15. Remove from oven and serve immediately. Enjoy!
