Popovers

I saw this recipe on Alton Brown's show and had to try it. Popovers are like muffins and biscuits only that they are filled with air instead of bread. When you cut them in half, you have a cavity for filling with dinner or gravy. Trust me, these are delicious and easy!

EVERYTHING should start at room temp.

• 1 tbsp. butter (melted and cooled)
• 1 tsp. butter (for the pan)
• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 tsp kosher salt
• 2 lg. eggs
• 1 cup whole milk

- Preheat the oven to 400
- Grease your popover pan (I used a muffin pan and a small loaf pan) with butter.
- Blend all the ingredients together for about 30 seconds - but not much longer
- fill the muffin pan to about 1/2 or 1/3 of the pan - do NOT over fill
- Bake for 40 minutes on the middle rack

When you remove them to cool (on a rack not in the pan) make sure you pierce the popovers with a knife. They have air pockets in the middle because the air inside them bubbles up and makes them large. If you don't pierce them, the air inside will continue to cook them turning them back into a warm doughy sludge.

These were a HUGE hit the last time I made them. They are great for serving with sauce! Enjoy!
