6 Servings
Ingredients
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1½ cups whole milk
½ teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons salted butter, melted and cooled slightly
Powdered sugar, optional
Directions
Place oven rack in lower third of oven; place a 6-cup popover pan on the lower oven rack. Preheat oven with popover pan to 425°F for 10 to 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large blender, place eggs, milk and salt. Cover and blend on high for 30 seconds or until mixture is pale in color and slightly foamy. Add flour and melted butter; cover and blend for 30 seconds or until mixture is well combined.
Remove popover pan from the oven; generously spray each popover cup with nonstick cooking spray. Divide and pour about ½ cup batter into each prepared popover cup, filling each cup almost to the top.
Bake for 20 minutes. Do not open oven; reduce oven temperature to 400°F. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes more or until golden brown.
Remove pan from oven. Invert pan over a wire rack to remove popovers. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired. Serve immediately.
To make ahead: Completely cool popovers. Store in an airtight covered container at room temperature up to 1 day. To serve, place popovers on a baking sheet and reheat in a 350°F oven for 3 to 5 minutes or until lightly crisp and warmed through.
