This recipe has long been a staple in my family. My sister used to make them too, and they are a quick and easy side dish for soup.

1 cup flour

1/8 t salt

3 eggs

1 cup milk

Spray a 12 cup muffin tin with cooking spray. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. In a separate bowl, combine eggs and milk. Whisk milk mixture into dry mixture til smooth.

Fill muffin cups 2/3 full.

Bake popovers 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake 15 minutes more.

you know I have always wanted to make popovers but haven't because I thought I needed one of those special pans so guess who is making popovers this weekend

Wow, I'm with Pamela, if I had known it was this easy I would have tried making them years ago! Thanks!
Becky Paulsen Feb 6, 2013, 7:49am UTC
P.S. Your oven is disgustingly clean, LOL.
☃ Shannon K. Wendt Feb 6, 2013, 8:29am UTC
If you saw what my oven looked like last week you wouldn't have said that! LOL

I JUST cleaned it. It kept smoking it was so dirty!

As a general rule I do not bake, but this looks so easy I will probably try it.

I love popovers too! Can never stop at one, that's for sure.
One trick I learned years ago was to preheat the pan in the oven for 5- 10 minutes. The popovers rise a little more then.
☃ Shannon K. Wendt Oct 14, 2011, 10:56am UTC
What a great idea, Theresa! Thanks for the tip!
Ishbel R. Feb 6, 2013, 8:30am UTC
I thought they were similar to Yorkies!

I always ensure the oil or ducjfat or beef dripping is smoking hot before adding the Yorkshire Pudding batter. This ensuees that they really puff up.
Ishbel R. Feb 6, 2013, 8:37am UTC
Sorry for the typoes. I'm really not good using the ipad!

The duckfat, not ducjfat
Ensures, not ensuees
☃ Shannon K. Wendt Feb 6, 2013, 5:13pm UTC
LOL! I wouldn't even know how to turn on an ipad!
Ishbel R. Feb 6, 2013, 6:36pm UTC
A gift from my sister ad the laptop is on thewaymout. New one is in the process of being selected!
Theresa o. Oct 14, 2011, 11:28am UTC
You can also use pan drippings from a beef roast in the popover pans to add a little extra flavor...that is all yorkshire pudding is...
Have a great weekend!
☃ Shannon K. Wendt Oct 14, 2011, 11:29am UTC
Yum!

I just noticed your last name. My dear friend has the same last name???
☃ Shannon K. Wendt Oct 14, 2011, 2:08pm UTC
Where are they from?
Theresa o. Oct 14, 2011, 2:57pm UTC
Hi Shanny,
West suburbs of Mpls.
☃ Shannon K. Wendt Oct 14, 2011, 3:05pm UTC
Hmmm... ask if they are related to any Wendts from Michigan.
Theresa o. Oct 14, 2011, 3:10pm UTC
Jeff was born in Seattle, I think?? I will ask them. That would be too fun.
☃ Shannon K. Wendt Oct 15, 2011, 11:25am UTC
