Popovers

"This recipe is based on the one from King Arthur Flour. Their version specified whole milk and unsalted butter, but I have used regular salted butter and lactose-free milk (1% or 2%) and they are delicious."

  1. This batter is good, but is way too much for a standard size 12 muffin pan. The recipe says to fill muffin cups about 2/3 full - mine were about 3/4 full. The popovers did rise well, but I baked 5 extra minutes to get them golden brown. I did let them rest in pan for 5 minutes before removing, but a few fell in pan after removing from the oven. The popover sides were thick & doughy (dough was cooked). We prefer thin, crispy popovers. This recipe would be good for individual custard cups or larger than standard muffin tins or would make 18 in standard size muffin pans. The popovers did taste good and were tender, but had more of a pancake texture in a popover shape. They weren't light & airy inside. The blender method works great! Next time for a standard 12-cup muffin pan, I would cut back to 2 eggs, 1 cup milk & flour & 2 TBSP butter.

I am a stay-at-home-mom, or rather, drive-around-in-the-minivan mom to DS7, DD6, DD5 and DS1. DH is lactose intolerant so I have learned to work around that in my recipes. I started baking cookies and such when I was about 9, and cooking daily suppers when I was 13 so I have been in the kitchen for a good percentage of my life already. It's a good thing that it's my favourite place to be! My favourite appliance is a rice cooker, with the Kitchenaid mixer running a close second. DH bought a Traeger wood pellet barbecue for Mother's Day a few years ago and it is amazing. I almost always wear an apron in the kitchen because I'm a sloppy cook and stained too many shirts. My favourite is from www.ashtongreen.com, a Canadian website that sells great kitchen stuff. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
