I realized I had just enough ingredients to make popovers.
I couldn't remember the ingredients for them so I wound up using this recipe from the food network website.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus 1 teaspoon room temperature for pan
4 3/4 ounces all-purpose flour, approximately 1 cup
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup whole milk, room temperature
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Grease a 6-cup popover pan with the 1 teaspoon of butter.
Place all of the ingredients into a food processor or blender and process for 30 seconds. Divide the batter evenly between the cups of the popover pan, each should be about 1/3 to 1/2 full. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 40 minutes. Remove the popovers to a cooling rack and pierce each in the top with a knife to allow steam to escape. Serve warm.
**note** I was too lazy to break out my food processor so early in the morning so I used a wire disk and everything came out just great!
We served the popovers with warm honey butter and fresh berries from the farm. Everyone ate and no one complained! That's a WIN at our house.
The added benefit of popovers is they are a great addition for any meal. Serve with fruit for a light breakfast, or serve as a savory bread dish instead of a dinner roll with a nice dinner. Or stuff them filled with some lunch meat or veggies for a quick on the go lunch.
Enjoy :)
I too woke up way too early this morning, saw this post, and with just a little effort, woke up my loved one with that buttery scent. I only had a regular muffin tin, but it totally worked anyway -- mini popovers really. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI really wish I could get popovers to work in altitude. I haven't yet - anyone reads this that lives in higher altitude have a secret please let me know. I used to make them and cream puffs all the time when I lived in Kansas and just can't get them to work in Colorado.
