Star Created with Sketch. 5/5 - 54 Ratings PRINT Prep Time 5 minutes Cook Time 35 minutes Serving Yield 12 popovers Thanks to their airy and flaky texture and short ingredient list, popovers are the perfect vessel for a pat of butter and all your favorite toppings. Once the warm pockets of goodness are fresh out of the oven, the sky's the limit: think berry jam, orange marmalade, maple syrup, or fresh lemon curd. By: Run Far Girl Ingredients 2 large (100g) Pete and Gerry’s Organic Eggs 1 1/2 cups (340g) whole milk 1 1/2 cups (195g) flour 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 tablespoons (21g) butter, melted 2 tablespoons butter, softened, to coat inside of popover tins Nutritional Information Serv.

Directions STEP 1 Preheat oven to 450F. Generously coat the inside of a popover tin with butter (a muffin tin can be used in a pinch; see notes). We recommend using a paper towel with a dab of butter on it to grease the tin - a great task for little hands! STEP 2 Combine eggs and milk in a medium bowl and beat well with a whisk. STEP 3 Add flour and salt to the wet mixture and whisk together until smooth and free of lumps. Stir in melted butter. STEP 4 Ladle batter into tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full. STEP 5 Bake 20 minutes at 450F, then reduce heat (without opening oven) to 375F and bake another 15 minutes until golden-brown. STEP 6 Enjoy warm with jam, maple syrup or butter! Farm Team Tips: While you can use a muffin tin in a pinch, know that your popovers may not "pop." Most traditional popover tins have open spaces between each cup, designed to allow increased airflow between the popovers as they bake. Popover tins also have deeper, steeper-sided cups than muffin tins, which help encourage the popover batter to rise upwards rather than settling during baking. Resist the urge to open the oven door while your popovers bake. Even cracking it for just a few seconds to check on them will let out enough heat that your popovers might struggle to "pop" completely.

Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Frances Laser May 20, 2020 I’m making these with soup tonight! Why not cheese with them?😀 Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] May 20, 2020 Yum! We like the way you think, Frances. Thanks for trying our recipe! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Suzanne May 19, 2020 Our family recipe ingredients are the same as yours...but re: the oven...ours started in a cold oven set @ 450 or (400?)...I can’t remember exactly...plus we lightly mixed the batter ...just to get the lumps down... they came out great all the time! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] May 20, 2020 Thanks for the tips, Suzanne! So neat to hear popovers were a family favorite. Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Kari May 18, 2020 Ugh what a waste of time and eggs (and eggs are hard to come by these days!) I read all the comments and followed all instructions including whisking and hot oven. These are hockey pucks - no two ways about it! F- in my book but all your other recipes have been great so far. Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] May 18, 2020 Hi Kari, we're so sorry to hear this recipe gave you such negative results. Please send an email to [email protected] and we would love to make it right by troubleshooting with you and sending along a coupon so you can replace the eggs lost by trying this recipe. Glad to hear you have been enjoying some of our other recipes though. Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Devona May 16, 2020 These are fantastic! I used a combo of almond milk and half & half. It’s weird but it worked. I will be making these again! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] May 18, 2020 So happy to hear you enjoyed these, Devona! Glad the milk substitutions worked out too. Sometimes, especially right now, we just have to use what we have and hope for the best. Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Erica May 15, 2020 Can you add something to the batter before baking (like cheese)? Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] May 18, 2020 Hi Erica, we haven't tried any add-ins using this recipe but certainly won't stop you from testing it out. Perhaps add a little bit of cheese to one or start by just topping one with cheese to see how it comes out. Can't wait to hear what other spins off this recipe you come up with! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Alyson May 15, 2020 Something Is missing from this recipe. My popovers did not rise and became very hard before the 15 minutes @ 375 degree was even over. Am I doing something wrong? Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 2 Replies Suzanne May 19, 2020 Possibly over beating or old flour... Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. [email protected] May 16, 2020 Hi Alyson. Sorry this recipe gave you trouble. We wanted to confirm that all of the ingredients seem to be listed. Some of the keys to getting these to rise is not over mixing the batter (hand whisking is usually a safe method), and also ensuring that your oven is hot enough when you put these in the oven. Feel free to reach out to us via email at [email protected] if you continue to have trouble with this recipe and we'd love troubleshoot with you. Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Justine May 14, 2020 How does the batter rise without baking powder??? Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] May 15, 2020 Hi Justine! We love popovers because they're something that allows our eggs to shine as a key leavening agent, along with steam. A nice hot oven is key to getting steam to quickly escape from the batter, leading to that high pop we love. Hope this helps! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Joe 8a May 14, 2020 Did you omit the leavening agent? What makes it rise ? Hmm 🤔 there is something missing in this recipe for them to look like that . Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] May 15, 2020 Hi Joe. No additional leavening agent necessary--a well mixed batter and a hot oven should do the trick. A hot enough oven is the key to getting these to pop. Please shoot us an email at [email protected] with any further questions and we'd be happy to help you get this recipe just right.

I used almond milk and thought that was the problem but I guess not. Too bad, so disappointed. Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] May 18, 2020 Hi Priscilla, we're so sorry to hear you had the same problem getting your popovers to rise. Some further tips we have for getting these to rise is ensuring your oven is getting hot enough, making sure your tins are full enough, and resisting the urge to open the oven to check on these while they're in there. We hope these help make your next batch just the airy treat you're looking for. Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Cb May 15, 2020 The eggs will make them rise Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Sarena Goldstein May 14, 2020 Same question! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. [email protected] May 13, 2020 Hi Maria! This recipe just calls for an all-purpose flour. We hope you enjoy! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply Cari Z May 16, 2020 The directions are definitely missing somethings. How long to whip eggs maybe? I’ve made these twice thinking the first time was an error on my part, but these don’t rise. That are hard and flat. Waste of time and ingredients. Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] May 18, 2020 Hi Cari, thanks for giving these another try and so sorry to hear the recipe still isn't working for you. Some of the most common reasons for these not popping into a nice airy popover are not filling the tin to the proper level and not having a hot enough oven. It's also important to resist the urge to open the oven to check on these while they are baking. Opening the oven will release some heat and possible prevent these from properly rising.

This stay at home order us giving me a great reason to take up baking again. Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] May 08, 2020 So glad to hear! We can't wait to hear how these come out, Shureen. Bon appetit! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Maggie May 08, 2020 What do you do for GF? Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] May 08, 2020 Hi Maggie! We haven't tried converting this recipe to GF yet, although you could probably substitute your favorite GF flour for the flour in this recipe. If you do so, be sure to calculate the proper flour conversion, as not all flours are created equal. You should be able to find a flour conversion chart online pretty easily. We hope this helps! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Brenda November 27, 2019 Pop overs or hockey pucks. This recipe did not work for me. They turned out like hockey pucks. Hard and small. It looked so simple to make but definitely not worth wasting ingredients. Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] November 28, 2019 We're so sorry to hear about your trouble with this recipe, Brenda! Although these little guys are simple to mix up, they can be a little tricky to get baked up properly. Making sure you have a lot of batter in each cup, a well-mixed batter, and a really hot oven throughout the bake are a few tips we'd recommend if you give popovers a try again (a popover pan will also yield better results although we understand most people don't have one on hand, in which case a muffin pan should work just fine). Feel free to send us an email if you have any additional questions or if there is anything else we can do for you, and we hope this is only a small blip on your successful baking journey! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. ali July 01, 2018 this recipes seems odd. are you boiling the eggs before adding them to popover batter???? Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] July 03, 2018 Hi Ali, our apologies for any confusion! The eggs are not cooked before being added to the popover batter - they should be whisked (raw) in a large mixing bowl, then the milk and dry ingredients should be added. We hope this helps clarify the recipe! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch.
