Ingredients
Scale
- 1–1/4 cups bread flour
- 1–1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups milk, warmed in a microwave oven to 115°F (about 45 seconds on high)
Instructions
- Move the oven rack to the middle of the oven. Preheat oven to 425°F. (Start early so the oven is fully heated).
- Thoroughly grease (using an oil spray) each well of the metal pan, set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the bread flour, sugar, and salt and mix together.
- In a heatproof liquid measuring cup, warm the milk in the microwave on high for 60 seconds. Stir in the melted butter and mix to combine.
- Beat the eggs in a small bowl.
- Combine the warm milk, melted butter, and beaten eggs into the bread flour mixture and stir for 2-3 minutes or just until the larger lumps are incorporated.
- Carefully pour the batter into the prepared pan. Fill each well to over 3/4 full.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and cook for 25 minutes. (You can monitor the lift of the popovers through the window in the oven door, but resist opening the oven door.)
- Reduce the oven heat to 350° F and continue baking for 15 minutes longer or until the popovers are golden brown and well puffed.
- Remove the pan from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Take the popovers from the pan and serve warm with butter.
