Popovers are light and airy with a great eggy flavor. Super easy to make and amazing to eat. Delicious with butter and jam.

As you can see in my pictures, popovers don’t always pop. Sometimes it can be tough to do. The ingredients are simple but popping can be an issue. They taste the same whether they pop or not. They are still delicious

What’s the secret to getting them to pop? 

Preheating the pan will help with getting them to pop over. Using a popover pan is a necessity. The cups being separate is important. Another important step is to not open the oven at all while they are baking. This is very important.

 

 

Are popovers and Yorkshire pudding the same thing?

They are very similar. However, Yorkshire pudding uses drippings from a beef roast. Popovers have a little bit of a lighter flavor because of this.

Now making popovers takes a little planning ahead.  Just a little.  You will need your eggs and milk to be room temperature.  So take those out an hour or so before you begin to make them.

Yield: 6 popovers

They look like basically what I would call Yorkshire Pudding... not sure what's up with having a special pan for them, though! :)

When I was doing research on why there aren't popovers in SE Idaho, I found that they are a version of Yorkshire Pudding.

This basic popover recipe would be so good with honey in the center. I had a lot of fun making them. Thanks for stopping by.
