Popovers Recipe

When I was a little girl, quite a few years ago, every Christmas morning my mother made popovers for breakfast. She wouldn’t start them until after presents were opened, but it was a treat we enjoyed. When I made them the first time, I was delighted by the simplicity of this tasty dish.

Popovers 8-12 yield

1-1/2 cups milk
1-1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 jumbo or 5 large eggs

Method:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Grease muffin tins very well.
Pour milk into a medium size bowl.
Add flour and salt.
Beat until blended well. Be careful not to over beat.
Add eggs one at a time, beating after each one. When blended, add the next one.
Fill cups 3/4 full.
Bake at 425F for 20 minutes.
Reduce temperature to 325F and continue baking for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve with jam (I’m partial to red raspberry jam, plus it is festive).

Enjoy.
