Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 F.

Place all of the ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine. Allow mixture to come to room temperature while oven preheats. This helps with creating a light and fluffy popover.

Grease each popover tin with cooking spray or butter and fill 3/4 of the way up with batter.

Bake for 35 minutes and do not open the oven door while cooking.

Serve immediately.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Room Temperature Ingredients 🌡️
Bring eggs and milk to room temperature before mixing to ensure a smooth, lump-free batter that rises evenly and achieves maximum lift in the oven.
Preheat with Butter 🧈
Heat your popover pan with butter in a 425°F oven for 5 minutes before adding batter; the sizzling hot butter creates the signature crispy, golden exterior.
Don't Open the Door 🚪
Resist the urge to peek during baking—opening the door before 30 minutes causes temperature drops that deflate your popovers and ruin their airy structure.
Grate Fresh Parmesan 🧀
Use freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano rather than pre-grated cheese, which contains anti-caking agents that prevent proper melting and even cheese distribution throughout the batter.
Rest After Baking ⏱️
Let baked popovers cool for 2-3 minutes in the pan before removing; this allows the structure to set slightly while maintaining that signature hollow center and crispy shell.
