Popovers
As I have previously mentioned, popovers are kinda my speciality.
My whole family loves them. If there is ever a holiday and I don't make popovers, it would be the beginning of World War III! Everyone knows I am known for these rolls; they always ask how I make them, and really it is quite simple. The trick is the pan! If you don't use a popover pan the popovers will not rise right and will not become light and airy. Below are two different views of these specialty pans. They can be purchased at any store that sells bake-ware.
Once you have your pans, you are ready to begin.
Ingredients: Yield: 6 popovers
1 tablespoon melted unsalted butter
1 cup flour
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees
Place all the ingredients in a mixer, food processor, or blender for 1 minute or until all of your ingredients are fully incorporated.
Next you have to grease your pans. This is very important as you want your popovers to just pop right out of the pan and stay completely in tact and light and fluffy.
Once your pans are thoroughly greased, pour your batter into the cups of the popover pan.
Each cup should be about 1/3-1/2 full
Bake your popovers in the middle rack for 40 minutes or until golden and fluffy.
I suggest keeping the oven door closed until you feel the popovers should be checked on, or need to be removed from the oven.
I usually check on them at 30 minutes and keep an eye on them until they are done after that.
Make sure to keep a close eye on them as one second they look as though they need one more minute, and 30 seconds later they will start to burn a little.
Once your popovers are out of the oven I suggest you serve them as soon as possible and when they are still warm as they do not hold up very well.
One of our favorite ways to eat these is with gravy.
On holidays, my dad will make the entre with a gravy and my family then opens up their popovers and pours gravy inside.
Popovers are a delicious and different alternative to the every day dinner roll and can be eaten in many ways.

Now all you need is some hungry people to enjoy your wonderful warm popovers with you.
I suggest you hide some first though, because if your family is anything like mine, they will all be gone in seconds!
Happy Baking!
Don't forget to put a burry on it!
