Popovers

 I told you before how my daughter, years ago,  won a shopping spree at Neiman-Marcus, and she would treat us to lunch in their restaurant.  That is where we discovered our love for the best popovers ever!  They serve their popovers with strawberry butter, which is so luscious.

 I had some homemade raspberry jam and decided to mix a little of that into some butter, and put it into this pretty dish. I bought these little jam/butter dishes at the Mikasa outlet before they closed their stores, and use them all the time.



yield: 6 large popoversprint recipe

Popovers

I adapted this recipe to make 6 popovers, because that's the size pan that I have.  You can see how big the popovers are in comparison to my teacup! You must have the eggs and milk warm before mixing, and to let the batter sit for an hour before baking. Serve with butter that has some fruit preserves mixed in...yum!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 and 3/4 cups milk
  • 2 cups flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 large eggs, at room temperature

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees (or plan on doing this halfway when the batter is resting for an hour).
  2. Place the milk in a bowl and microwave for about 1 minute, or until warm tp the touch.
  3. Sift the flour, salt, and baking powder together in a bowl. (I'm lazy and just whisk the ingredients together with a wire whisk.)
  4. Crack the eggs into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a wire whisk and beat on medium speed for about 3 minutes, until foamy and pale in color. Turn down the mixer to low and add the warm milk. Gradually add the flour mixture and beat n medium speed for about 2 minutes. Turn the mixer off and let the batter sit for 1 hour at room temperature.
  5. Spray a popover pan generously with nonstick spray. Fill the popovers cups almost to the top with the batter and place the popover pan on a cookie sheet. The popovers will rise about 3-4" so make sure your oven racks are spaced properly.
  6. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Turn down the oven temperature to 375 degrees and bake for 30-35 minutes longer, until the popovers are a deep golden brown on the outside.
  7. Turn out the popovers and serve hot.

  12. Yum! Strawberry butter looks luscious and would taste ever so lovely on your popovers, Kitty! I haven't made popovers but I do make Yorkshire pudding with is basically the same thing. Next time I make them, I will double the batch and I will try your strawberry butter on them.Happy June, my friend!

  13. Kitty, oh my! I love popovers! I've never heard of strawberry butter but it sounds so delicious. If it wasn't so late and I wasn't so tired, I think I'd be baking after reading your post! xo

  14. I can't recall ever having popovers before, although I have tried Yorkshire pudding. This is the first time that I've ever heard of strawberry butter. What a yummy idea!

  15. Hi Kitty, such a pretty table set for your popovers and jam, it looks delicious. How sweet to be treated at NM and how lucky your daughter was! I've got to make the butter jam,yum. This looks so good now I'm hungry:)

    ReplyDelete
  16. Oh, my word! These look amazing! And, I would never have thought to add the jam to the butter!! I have seen my husband and his dad mix butter and jelly together at breakfast, so I guess that is similar! I don't have a popover pan...I wonder if a muffin pan would work, if I didn't fill them too full? Thank you for another wonderful post, sweet friend. Praying for you and sending hugs!

  18. So few ingredients yet such a delightful creation! I've never tried making popovers, Kitty. Actually, I'm not sure I've ever even eaten one but I sure would like to.
    Love your little cloche/butter dish! I used to love our Mikasa outlet before it, too, closes. Your strawberry teacup is beautiful, too.

  21. I DO love me some bread of ANY kind. I haven't made popovers in YEARS!! Your post has made my mouth water. I also never thought of flavoring the butter with fruit -- how decadent and yummy. Those dishes are to die for -- I think I will be looking for those on ebay, etc. How big are they?

  33. Kitty, nobody loves a popover more than I do! These are gorgeous, and I'd like your berry butter as well. The first time I had popovers was at a wonderful place in northern Michigan. They served them with honey butter. (Of course, the Yorkshire puddings I grew up with were basically savory popovers.)
